Vranko, I've heard the same thing about those Cayenne diesels when towing a Cayman on an open Featherlite. Also, there's rumors about long haul capabilities headed south into the Smokies as well. :)

I had an IMS bearing retrofit that failed at 6k miles. They gave me a new IMS bearing. Save your money. I'm pretty sure the people who are pushing all the hype are selling snake oil.

I usually run with the PCA Delaware group and they have a deal with the Fairfield Inn in Millville. I find it's a decent place to stay with restaurants, a Wawa, and gas between there and the track.

Fly in Friday morning and get home Sunday night. That's only 1 time off day for me. Couple that with longer days for the 9 previous days and it's maybe none. :cool:

I hesitate to post this. It's a sample of one event in an otherwise great relationship with Pelican over the past 10 or more years. But, it was this week and it...

I've been using the reusable vinyl from Solo performance for several years. The real trick is to remove carefully so you don't deform the vinyl and to keep the tacky surface clean.

There were so many offs this weekend <cough> that I think from the air it would have appeared that a drunk stole a lawn mower and went for a joy ride through all the dandelions. :roll:
