For those not familiar with the show, here is a link: http://www.lizardlicktowing.com/


On the way to Carlisle (from Florida), we made a pit stop to visit the "set" of Lizard Lick Towing in Wendell, NC (outside Raleigh). What a fun bunch - they loved the car, that's for sure!!!

99,399 miles - and counting...

Service log is pretty boring... Routine maintenance, that's all...
  • 4 sets of brakes (pads/rotors)
  • 6 sets of tires (not counting the Hoosier R6 tires )
  • 17 Oil Changes
  • 280 + car washes


Car has been on the road course at many tracks, nationwide. It has been autocrossed, dragraced, and more than that, driven by many prospective customers! Rigorously, yet intelligently!

Callaway is MATCHLESS in performance, reliability, drivability, emissions compliance, and warranty!

This Callaway has been a flawless machine!!!

...a couple small chips - nothing big to worry about.

Car looks amazing! Most mistake our car for having 10k or 12k miles. Not 99,97x miles
