Default Tire transport to VIR
Could someone please help me bring 4 wheels/tires down to VIR for the April DE? I'll be driving down in the Cayman and hoping to get my track wheels down there.

Much appreciated if someone has a little extra room.

Peter

I could tow down but my tow vehicle is my wife's car, and she isn't comfortable driving my GTI for 4 days (plus my trailer is up at Billy's).

Are you going down and do you have room for a set of tires in your trailer?

Just drive on your track tires.. save's time and effort of swapping over once your are there and before you come back!

I found a ride for my tires. I'd drive to Summit Point on the track tires but not VIR. The reduced-tread track tires are far inferior in a heavy rain with standing water on the highway.
