NY to LA. Again. Tonight. Team Polizei. Rene Villeneuve. Tim Ferriss. Stay Tuned.

Team Polizei is on the move. Again. With neue piloten.

We’re packing up Polizei 144B and setting off on a cross-country jaunt with race driver and veteran Skip Barber/Audi Driving Experience instructor Rene Villeneuve and the vaunted Tim Ferriss, noted blogger, kickboxer (sport of the future!) and author of the New York Times bestseller The 4-Hour Work Week.

Polizei 144B has once again been freshly, er, refreshed by the Polizei stalwarts at Ai Design, Roy and Johnson are fueled on a cocktail of caffeine, their trademark manic banter and the Mission of Burma DLC for Rock Band (”That’s How I Escaped My Certain Fate” being a deceptively tough track.)  We’ll be overnighting in Oklahoma City with 2008 Gumball US champion Jack Wheeler, meeting up with Rene and then setting off for Los Angeles.

Why, you ask? Along the way, we’ll be testing numerous cutting edge GPS/logging/tracking hardware & software, starting with some very interesting gear from Team Polizei’s new allies over at EveryTrail.com, along with a lot of new and as-yet unrevealed gear and tactics.

We’re just on vacation, of course, and we’ll be sharing much more in the hours to come. Tonight. Live tracking. Video. Real-time logging and content. Trapster. Convoys….

More to follow…
