The mods didn't create the poll. A member did just to see where the votes would fall. It's going to be the last part of April sometime but they haven't nailed down a spot yet. The last I heard was that it will be out west somewhere.

When we do not have time to drive them we do occasionally ship them. That is the exception for us. We have driven our cars from Michigan to Vegas for SEMA. we do this for a lot of reasons not the least of which is we make suspension part that are comfortable on the street and perform well on the track. It is hard to make that claim when you move your car from point to point in a trailer.

My SEMA cars have taken the kids to school before they were shown at SEMA. They are not sculptures or pictures of cars. They are transportation in style. If we wear one out or wreck it we can rebuild it or replace it. We enjoy our cars.

Long story short, would we drive one of our cars at the salt flats? The answer would be yes. We drive them everywhere. We tease people that bring their cars in trailers calling them trailer queens. Having said that,. some of my best clients have what amount to luxury trailers for their 5th Gens. It doesn't make them bad guys. It makes them spoiled.

I just rolled 21k yesterday and it will be a year Sunday since I brought it home. Definitely no garage queen here. I bought this car to enjoy and drive like I stole it and I've done both!

You tell 'em brother!!! 13 months, 26k miles and loving every day of my 'daily driver'... how else can I, and the rest of the world, marvel at this beauty!!!

PS: A Mini-Event in early Feb on the East Coast would be righteous...cause I'll be in Afghanistan by March for a year.....

Had mine since Nov. 6th just turned 12k. It's seen 3 different states and would prob have more miles if it wasn't for the motorcycle. Its like a battle every time I walk in the garage
