tie down

[tpraceman]

I am new at this posting thing.
I am going to pick up my 06 black with silver stripes Saturday. Need to load it in my trailer but I can't find any info about tying it down or places to strap the car. Thought if anyone has some advice it would be helpful.

06 all 4 opt. black w/silver/Michigan :banana :biggrin
So excited I have not slept in two days!

Owner's manual

There is a section in the owner's manual on trailering and tie downs. You must use straps that wrap the TIRES, not the axles, wheels or anything else. Don't have my manual with me for more help. Good luck and happy driving if it ever thaws in Michigan. FJP

Tom, I posted you a picture that might be helpful on the other thread...

Congratulations on the car and don't drive tired!! N

Tie-down quick

You are fast. Thanks Neil, I don't have any paperwork with me. This is exactly what I meant. FJP

Tom,

Neilda has got you covered, that's the ticket, use wheel-basket tie-downs. Congratulations on your car, ENJOY, and be safe!

When the car is dynotuned the best stratedy for securing the car is to remove the numerous torx screws that hold the rear flat plate under the engine so as to expose several strong frame sections. The process is laborious but simple.

Thanks guys, i could not find the photo so it should be fun Saturday. i dont think I can find tire nets in a day but if I do I will use them.

Not necessary. Have done three dyno sessions and have never had a problem.

Dave,
Did you use a strap thru the lower arms?
