I may have another option... I'm working on a hitch for my car trailer to pull the popup in tandum... I checked the overall length and I'm ok... what if came up through D/FW put your car on my trailer and we split the fuel cost??? I will be cornerworking and may hitch a ride to station and I can leave you my truck in case you need to run errands. 3 double beds in camper, my generator is not a "quite run" so I don't know about A/C. It is just a tent on wheels so it can be hard on a light sleeper...Quote:

I've still got the diesel pusher reserved and thus far don't have anyone but myself making the tow in it up there. If it'll help, the offer remains for any Texas racers who've qualified for Nationals to join me on a first come first serve basis to pull up a bunk and share sleep space the entire week in it if it'll help get another Texas AI/CMC car into the field at M-O. I have no idea how many people she'll sleep but I'm sure we can give it the old college try!

part of the issue is what to do w/ my wife and kids while i'm gone. the tow vehicle is the primary means of transportation for our family as i have a company truck to drive while @ work daily. we planned on flying them to her moms for 2 weeks. that alone was close to a grand. well her mom seems to have stepped up and offered to pay half the air fair. that helps. i've had another offer from a sponsor to pay half my fuel costs. i may have to take him up on that. but that will cost me a hood re-paint as he wants the whole hood.
things are looking better this evening. and my wife wants me to go. i'm w/ you Todd, what the hell, go @ all costs, almost.
we have yet to resolve the money issue that popped up tuesday. but that is getting looked @ and we may have a solution that will buy us a few months.
guys, i want to go for the same reasons i go to every TX region event, to have fun racing w/ people who love what i love. i want to meet w/ those Cali punks and have them say, "those TX guys are all right, and they kicked my ass!".
if anyone wants to ride up w/ me and help drive, that would be another way to help me. i think we can do it in one shot w/ 2 drivers.
