We've only put about 100 miles on the Catalina so far, so I'm not comfortable driving it up and back. We'll be trailering it to put in the show and make a few passes down the strip to see how it handles at high speed. I was tempted to make two trips and bring the Tempest, too, but I decided to concentrate on the Catalina. Ellen wants to learn to race the Catalina, make burnouts, etc. so we'll get a start on that.
