The good news about MOST of these cars is that they are well cared for. Not many will invest this much money and then beat the crap out of them.....they may drive them hard but they are made to be driven. I have a lot of SPF friends who routinely drive their cars long distance. At our SPF meetings several times each year we will typically drive 500 - 1000 miles while we are at the location (not counting to and from). I won't say these cars never have problems but the problems are almost always with the engine. The SPF rolling chassis is real quality. Do you know who the engine builder was? If the engine is sound, I would make sure it has
oil and the wheels are on tight and go for it....assuming no snow on the roads.
