Those who follow my GT3 RS thread already know that I blew the motor in the car last month while driving the track at Texas World Speedway. In an effort to turn the heartache into more of an adventure, I've decided to ship the car all the way out to Fremont, California for repairs and upgrades at Shark Werks. They received the car this afternoon and the work is expected to take 5-8 weeks to complete. The plan is to drive the car home in an epic road trip and -- ideally -- get some track time at race tracks along the way. I'd guess on a late-April or early-May departure from Fremont, but that's entirely up to the repair time.
Minimally we'll be heading down to Los Angeles to visit with friends, and possibly Vegas on the way back even though that's not the most direct route. We'd obviously love a chance to meet up with any Final Gear folks who live close to the path home. Even though it's a few months out, I figured it was a good idea to start the thread and begin the route planning...
