Need a trailer for Buttonwillow

I am planning to go to Buttonwillow and would like to trailer the car up there. Does anyone have a trailer they are willing to rent for the weekend? I would prefer to give the money to a club member than to U-haul.

Thanks,


Stacy Smith

Tom,

Yes, I checked with Wise's "trailers r' us" - seems that a certain black/galaxy 951 "daily driver" will be trailered to BW. I have borrowed from Ethan before as well but his trailer is also spoken for.


Thanks,

Hey Stacy, afraid your tires won't survive the trip? :roll:

I have an 18Ft dual axle, w/brake trailer I use for a 944 that will not be used that weekend if you are interested.

Trailers and tires

Thanks for the offer of the trailer (it's Brian, right?). Please let me know your rental fee and I would be delighted to take it to BW.

As for my tires, you may have seen the photos of my rears from last weekend's DE. I have a full realization of why Carreras and SCs have fender flares and 245's as stock sizes. A three liter engine seems to ask more of the tires than does the 2.7. We are going to try some RA-1's this time, always in the largest size that fits - 205.

Thanks again for the offer of the trailer - by the way, will 205's fit on that too? If I get desperate perhaps I could pull those off for timed runs.....

I have a trailer that's usually available for rent as well. :D
$40 per day, $80 per weekend.

Ok, Let me know. We'll take some measurements. I say that because the tire channels are kind of narrow. We know they just barely fit a 944. :wink:
