Oh ok...I kept hearing rumors of a Hummer and I could have sworn I heard you mention a Range Rover before...although I can no longer stand them

Yes, I have an H2 SUT (the uninformed think it's just a re-bodied Tahoe, hence the joking). I was really close to pulling the trigger on a Range Rover to replace my wife's car, but she changed her mind...and now she can't make up her mind.

You think a 12 x 8 V closed trailer work?

I see this guy at some track days that has a small sport car pulling one of those 1 bike trailer... looks pretty neat.
Boyd Bruner used to bring his RS125 to the racetrack in the trunk of his BMW 530. Just took off the front wheel and threw it in . . .

Re: What kind of car/s do you drive?
I have a couple of Ford vans, an E-150 for work with 180,000 miles,
an E-350 15-passenger stretch formerly owned by ND4SPD's dad. Used a bit for work and for trackday duty with 280,000 miles!

Then the Honda roll call:

My 2003 Acura CL-s 6 speed
my wife's 2004 Accord EX (for sale soon, because we just inherited my late mother-in-law's 2006 Civic LX)
My son has a 2005 Civic LX,
and one of my daughters has our old 2002 Accord LX.

My wife also has a '72 VW beetle that I'm supposed to be rebuilding and painting, and my other daughter has a 2001 New Beetle.


I think that's all.

Last spring I did the suspension of my SV instead. Priorities...

Anyway, who said I liked VW's? She wants to make an art car out of it. The engine blew and I want to put an 1800cc engine with dual carbs so it gets out of its own way.

The 912 engine is too rare and expensive, the 914 is nothing special. I should be able to put one together that will be useful in the real world.


But I'd rather do the '03-05 cam swap on the SV..
