I don't think you'd be able to get a waiver from Jay for something THAT big.

Re: Yay or Nay

too bad it isn't a full sized bus - you could've towed the car on it and slept in it

Fullsize is overrated... and harder to park. Not to mention requires being registered and modified to be an RV so you don't have to have a CDL to drive it.

Too cool.....I also vote for a tow vehicle-camper for the track..... 

I think either the partridge family or short bus theme (with helmets)

I knew someone that cut the back wall out of the bus, along with about 5 feet of the roof, and used metal ramps to drive his street stock Malibu up into it.  Instant trailer!!!

there's a guy from ok. running a saab (street stock drag car). uses a bus with a ramp built on the back, with about ten feet of the roof cut away.  looks oddball, but it works..........

Seen it done... our car would fit with ease if we made the rear a hydraulic drop gate. It has been considered and if we find a suitable Full Frame; this one will be turned into a trailer and used that exact way.

Re: Yay or Nay

One of the guys that drives with us and who is the primary wrench on the car we have up in Indianapolis went out to Bonneville for the speed weeks a couple years ago in a bus like what you're thinking about. It was a full-size converted school bus and they chopped it about halfway back for the flatbed part, then put in a set of bunk beds and a bunch of couches and stuff in the front half. Pete said that it was a great way to go.

Re: Yay or Nay

At the dirt track i race at a guy puts his toyota mini stock in the back of a ford school bus. He made the back doors to where they swing open and he has long ramps that he drives the car up in it with. Its very humorous to watch!
