I'm willing to pay (reasonably) to have it shipped to Miller. My work schedule will only let me fly in, try not to come in last place, then fly back.

I can drop off and pick up from anywhere within 50 miles of Denver.

Please let me know.

Pat, I'll call you. I'm not using my enclosed trailer, so we'll figure it out.

Hank, how big is your enclosed trailer? Big enough to haul out two cars?

You can always look at Modula Depot and one other place. They plan to go via 80 and will pick up along the way. check the nasaforums

Ian, doesn't look like Hanks trailer can hold two cars but sounds like he's not using one of them either way.

My problem isn't so much a trailer, it's getting towed. I just started a new position and I just can't take off a weeks worth of time.

I do have my dolly, if that could hitch on to someone I'd gladly pay for the tow...

How do you spell Kundrum, with a "c" or a "K"?

If we could find someone with a two car trailer I'd be happy to tow it and bring an extra car. My trailer will only fit mine, and I couldn't imaging towing an extra trailer behind the current one ... someone would arrest me for that ...

And it's with a "con" (conundrum) ;)

Ian, looks like you're good to go...I think.

In Colorado and Utah it appears to be legal to some extent.

Max combined length is 70' in CO and 65' in UT ... hrm... beyond that already ...

If someone wants to figure out how to mount a hitch to the trailer I can flat tow out an extra car...

My tow dolly is actually set up for being towed by a camper, extra long tow arm.

In addition to gas money, I'll sport a keg too. And cups.

Maybe we could mount a car on top of Dave's Suburban...

I laughed so hard at that picture I blew beer out of my nose.

Ian, unfortunately I only have room for one car.

I can tow my trailer with Pat's car inside it, if I can find someone with about 7'x5' extra space to bring my cage display. Unfortunately I can't fit both my cage display and the 944 into my 20-footer.

Hmmmm...we might be able to fit Hank's cage display.

When you say 7' x 5', does that mean it will fit sideways in an enclosed trailer with the 7' going width-wise and the 5' being the depth needed?

I'm likely going to be leaving the go-kart at home since there is no HPDE at Nationals to scurry about for...so that will free up just about the right amount of room in my 24ft enclosed to fit something extra up front along with all the regular tools and supplies.

I saw that train pull up at PPIR along with Chuck's trailer/camper/racecar combo. It looked the gypsies had arrived. Is there something similar planned for the trip to Miller? How close to max gross weight are you with the Suburban?

Great! Yep, the actual length (width, in your trailer) is 7'2".

Just got back from 3 grueling days in Dallas. Who should I call???

Ahhh, Dallas. Last time I was in Dallas, I had the all-you-can-eat spread at the Fogo de Chao (or was it Texas de Brazil?) for lunch and for dinner on the same day! I literally ate all-I-could-possibly-eat.

I think we're waiting to hear back from Scott to see if my display cage will fit in his trailer. If so, then I'll tow your car out there in my trailer. I'll call you.

Awesome. I'll stop by your shop this week to lock down the details!!!
