Jerry not to take a stand about M/H's.I set the scene for you.We're running 9.90 at the Empire Nationals.The rig we got is a M/H and a 24' enclosed trailer.You know what it is like at a national event for the "sportman" classes.It's a wk taken up and you hurry up and run a round,then you wait and wait and wait some more for the next round.At that track is always rains once during a event like that.So we are looking like it is going to rain and we put the car in the trailer.We're setting in the M/H to watch what looks like Curie,Larry and Moe with a open trailer and a Ford truck.(don't know their names,so the three stooges names works for me.)There out there in the rain trying to put on a car cover.
We watch this for about 20 minutes is a real down pour.They then crowd themself soaked to the skin in the Ford truck looking like they aren't having too much fun.They are sleeping in a tent too.Looked really bad the next day.All this is going on while we are eating our hot lunch and drinking our hot coffee at less than they paid for track food.The next day my partner tells me we are going to race those guys next.I turn to him and tell him lets take them out of their pain.
My partner saids you read my mind.Yes we sent them home winning another round.
We over all the yrs have had M/H's Jerry and as long as we used the load leveling bars we have kept for the whole time,we haven't had a issue towing up to a 28' trailer.We do travel abit too.Currently M/H less for that,but never excluded that for the future.
I would really like to get back to the posts about the 350 that is there and what I could do for that.I am busy moving into a new rented 1/2 pole barn.I'll try to posts some ideas for that maybe tomorrow.I want to also explain a bit more about the diesel.Like there is a heavy duty front spring option for this chassis.I have considered that.
Jerry,hands down I respect the heck out of you.So I am asking you for your help as well.Thanks Bud.
Jerry-I am going to tow a dual axle 12' trailer that at most would be 5,000lbs.Last edited by 1gary; 02-06-2011 at 12:24 AM.
