When I first got my 308 it overheated regularly here in Tennessee. I looked
at the ignition burn using a Colortune clear insulator spark plug, a
holdover from my British Sports Cars days. It was running REALLY LEAN (way
into the blue). I set the fuel mix to the correct burn color and never had a
problem after that. Oh, the Colortune corelated exactly with the exhaust gas
analyzer.

Mark, sounds like quite a project!

You may want to visit a race or a race shop to see what kind of set up other teams are using. This will give you an idea of what you will need in terms of tools and supplies inside your trailer.

One important question?

Are you guys racing to win?

Or racing to get out of the house for some boys time together?

Hi Mark,

Don?t forget the inbuilt espresso machine accessible from the outside!  And
an adjacent, easy pull-out awning.  Only half kidg, but I did see this on a
big rig race trailer once and it was amazing how much it was being used and
enjoyed, not just by those guys but also by others dropping by to
socialise! That said, apart from the basic technical requirements, there
may be some nice-to-have features that would add to your enjoyment on the
road.

Cheers,

Grahame

Quick update on this race team journey, it's a thousand times more than
driving a car on a track fast.....



**Caveat**  this project is based upon immediate 2 to 3 months needs and a
desire to keep the budget underneath Saturn.



It turns out no regular and quickly available trailers have over a 7' 2"
interior height, which nuked the 44 in race car stacker idea....



I went into a plan B mode and started looking at a 24-ft trailer with the
cars(12' long, 44" tall) nuts to butts towed by a motorhome, however most
motor homes have a 7,000 GVWR max tow rating unless you get into the hyper
expensive models, which nuked that idea and I was left holding a bag of air
and a curious mind....



Then, the next epiphany this morning... A Silverado 2500 diesel will tow
13,000 lb......I can get a 10,000 GVWR 24 ft trailer which will hold the
cars flat nuts to butts and then my son and I will design panels of
cabinets, sink workspace, shower, etc that can be raised 48" up off the
floor and allow the cars to utilize the entire floor space during transit,
and then lowered to the floor when the cars are removed during race weekend.



That will give us 8 ft by 24 ft of living and race prep space during race
weekend and then 8 ft by 24 ft of car transport space.



It's amazing how far down a rabbit hole we are going after a Formula
driving School life-changing event ???????



If anybody has ideas thoughts and concerns, I am all ears because I feel
like Roald Amundsen trying to figure out how to get to the South Pole....



Thanks!



Mark

Yeah, we're going to have to keep the espresso machine for the second build.... Nothing like a caffeine-induced steering wheel jitter to increase the challenge ??Right now we're racing to beat each other and to learn how to race, I'll be happy if I can have any other car behind me the checkered flag on the first race..... And then I get pretty competitive once I sort things out....We decided to go with a 32 ft trailer pulled by a Chevy Silverado 2500, plan on building a workshop and living quarters in the front and 2 car transport in the back.MarkSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone
