1964 Dart Grüne Hölle Road Course/Track Day/AutoX Project
4/27/22:
Grüne Hölle does a few Mountain trips, HPDE, Lemons Tows a trailer and Has a lot of fun whilst doing it.
Got all prepped for a trip to CMP in Kerschaw SC for a Track Day and a 24 Hours of Lemons Race.
Left Before Sunrise.... Towing the ValianTrailer → For Fun: 1962 ValianTrailer V200
I decided to leave very early as I had not towed the freshly Fabbed Trailer More than say ~15 Miles since I built it... along with the Hitch I just Fabbed for the '64 Dart as well.
I had the Trailer Loaded with Tools / Generator, 4 Wheels and Tires, An LA short Block, Racing Scales, Camping gear etc. Tongue Weight Was at 250# - 50# over what it was supposed to be.
I expected to have some sort of towing related maladies so I budgeted extra Time.
That never Happened - Trailer was Smooth, and Stable - Loaded or Not - even up to 90 Mph.. so. Up the Mountain I went - for a little detour to my first stop in Blacksburg, VA.
One of my favorite Routes... VA 311 From I64 to Catawba, VA was the route du Jour..
Lots of Beautiful Bloomin' Purple Tree Flowers this time of year!
