well…not the whole team.

Thanks everyone, for the kind words. I will know more about the trailer next week. It has a very thick skeleton frame and a simple metal skin around it. If the frame is straight its cool, if its bent, its scrap.

The truck is repairable. From what I could tell it needs a new front bumper, air dam, headlight, side skirt, pickup bed, and maybe a new wheel. Drivetrain appeared to be okay.

Time will tell.

haha…

well it looks like the trailer is totaled due to a bent frame. They are going to strip the mechanicals out of it and start from scratch. I almost rather have a brand new one at this point, but the only issue is time. I need this back no later than May 17th for the Charlotte All-star race. I dont think they can do it, but we’ll see.

Still no word on the truck.
