First off all Thanks to everyone for their kind words and phone calls that are still coming in!
This has been rough on more than one of us this past weekend luckily noone has any serious injuries that we know of yet!
Beth my knew girlfriend did recieve the blunt end of the trailer incident so far only severe whiplash in her neck and back, they still need to do a colonoscopy to make sure but we think the internal stuff was there before the accident!
I cannot thank my TEAMATES enough for the help and support during this incident! Leallen, Mike, Charlie, Johnny, Lundy, Carmen, Amanda and the newest member Beth whom without their support I would have lost it all together!!!
Kinetik was there Erik and thanks to DOC too thanks for the run to wal-greens guy's!!
Lundy once again you stepped up and went 7 hours out of your way for me and this isnt the first time either!! I cannot say thank you enough for all you have done for me and the team!!!
I am really glad to see everyone was ok when the Luv decided to attack its makers, We will get it back together better than ever and watch out it will be louder than it was!!!!!!
Scottie sorry to hear about your situation also I am glad to hear Tommy is ok and so are you Really sorry about your car bro!!!
The moral of this story These vehicles can and will hurt you if your not carefull Always take every precaution whenever towing no matter the size or weight of the vehicle donot short cut anything you do and take you time donot rush even if your running short on time!!!
Loading and unloading should be the most important thing from now on!!!!

I think someone put a hex on us at the show... I came home to find that the guy I borrowed the tow truck from wrecked my new car
no good news there.so is the car totaled or she not to bad.thats has to suck
hope all is still well looked like one hell of a long night after a long weekend

although the outcome wasnt as severe as previously mentioned, here it goes with me...
Me and dave jennings was hauling his van which at the time with the (truck,trailer,van) weighed in at 31,090lbs.
From Indiana to lookout mtn, tn, we was ok until we felt a bad shake and thought we blew a tire. we was going around 70ish or so
on the passenger side of the trailer, all but 1 lug nut stud on 1 wheel was attached, the rest was sheered off, the other rim and tire had 2 i think left in there. lucky we stopped when we did.
we blew 7 g rated tires that trip and cracked 4 rims.
2 tires blew on 1 side at the same time which wasnt fun either
I cant imagine what you guys went thru though

Its worth a shot, but it will take you a while to get it where your car is now. I guess you gotta decide which has more potential.

it only has half inch plate steel on the back and on the top of the box, and to tell the truth we think it cost us about .6, so do what You want just make sure You dont glue it on with about 8 of the large tubes of liquid nails!
