Because six wheels were just not enough:
8 (count 'em) Eight Spare Wheels in One Wagon.
Plus all my tools and ancillary gear (not pictured is the Giant Duffel of Stuffage, removed prior to taking the photo). And the front seat is still empty so I could have even gone Nine. So there.
The only thing I had to give up was my recliner, and I had to use a small jug instead of ...
I believe Nathan will be the "beta-tester" for the Half-Magnum-Trailer idea.
Must have been an interesting day out there, Matt. Glad you came home with the original number of pieces in their original locations!
Nicccce, I guess I will have to bring the ice chest and recliner to Laguna since you have our spare wheels covered...jk, I had my PZero's mounted yesterday so they'll be along for the trip. The half Magnum trailer sounds interesting, I recently saw a Vette towing a "custom" trailer which was just big enough to carry 4 wheels and an ice chest . I was thinking a trailer would be the way to ...
Yeah I have seen one of those. Most cool. But methinks we gotta suck it up as we are station wagons. Otherwise whats our excuse for racing them?

If anyone went to the LX nationals this year and happend to go to a&w for the car show there was a cadillac XLR with a trailer hooked onto it there. pretty funny.
The half magnum trailer idea sounds cool, but for the cash it'll take to pull that off, you could have a 1/2 pickup or van with a car trailer to pull the death wagon with. That way you wouldn't have to try and put 8 wheels in to the maggie.

I don't really sweat the street since I just use cruise control more often than not and never push it. I save that for the track nowadays. No more helicopters :D But helicoters are cool! As usual, we are fortunate to learn from your experiences! I know...

Each can contained a single 200-round belt and I paid $29.95 each for them. And yeah I had quite a few of them. Unbelting the ammo was a PITA. A lot of ammo...

Pretty much, These days you can pick up a decent half ton pickup for 10k and a trailer for 5k and not have to deal with a myriad of issues.
Got a buddy with a M60 or a M240? Nice ammo cans. A143? Me I like the A131. the Ball / Tracer. Oh... By the way looking forward to the video. I always enjoy watching you.
