18' Open Car Trailer FS

Hi guys - The trailer is going up for sale (no more tow vehicle). Yes, I still have the Camaro, but no time to race it at the moment (or deliver the trailer, no tow vehicle). Been incredibly busy at work and back into racing bicycles, triathlons, flying, and homebrew. I'll probably get back into it in a few years again. Seems to go in 5-10 year cycles <shrug>.

I purchased this trailer new from Atlantic Coast Trailers in the spring of 2001. It was used 2 to 3 times per year until 2008, and then not very frequently. Since I'm no longer road racing, I no longer need a trailer. A similar trailer new with these options would be over $4,000. Let me know if anyone has questions. I'm also listing it on Craigslist and Racing Junk. If you know other places to list, please let me know. Apparently there's a big RV community that uses car trailers too. Thanks for the help!

Free track time at Englishtown's new road course 6/6-6/8

I wish the Camaro was driveable right now, but you north east guys should jump on this.

Penske's for 4th gens

A guy on the A-sedan list is selling his 7500 series Penske's, and I thought someone here might be able to use them. No affiliation, etc...

Chromemoly Tubing - 1.75" x .095 DOM 4130

Like it says, I've got a 20' length of tubing that's been left over, and I need to make room! Use it for LCA's, PHB's, or a cage. No post weld stress relieving necessary on thin-wall tubing! Makes coffee and toast in the morning too!

1.75" x .095 DOM 4130 Chromemoly Tubing

Retail prices online seem to be from $6.50-$9.50 per foot for a complete length, and about 25% more for specific lengths. No problem if you need a specific length - I can cut as needed, or if you need bending, we can work it out (have a JD Squared Mandrel Bender with the correct bending dies & fishmouth drill jigs). I can't give it away, but you can get it for much less than mail order shipped.

The tubing has been kept indoors and is perfect. I've also got a length of 1.625" tubing, and would have to check thickness and total length, but it's a bit rusty.

Limerock TimeTrials 6/21

Anyone else plan on going? The event is with www.cartct.com. There's hardly any Limerock days available this year, for some reason. I'll be there with the Camaro, Mark Frouhar is taking up his 434 Firebird (those who've been to Indy or Memphis with NFME would recognize him), and hopefully some other pony car guys as well...
