So here's the deal.
I have to take my car (3700 Pound 05 GTO) from my house (Cheyenne & 215) to NRP out at the speedway tomorrow evening to get a base tune so that I can fire it up and break in the new motor.
A tow truck is going to run me over $150 - so thats out.
My next option is to rent a U-Haul trailer for $50, and I have access to a 06 5.4L F150 to tow the whole deal.
However, I'd much rather give a few bucks to someone else rather then use a jacked up uhaul POS. So if you want to rent out your trailer, or you want to donate a few hours and do the driving too, I will throw some $$$ your way.
Anyone know anyone?

http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htmI agree... Just make sure to let it warm up first IMHO. Don't run a cold engine hard.
