Unless something changed, you should be able to trailer a 55gal drum of whatever. Paul and Shiv trailered a drum, in 2004, IIRC.

Yeah the rule isn't very clear that is for sure. I'll probably give Brock a quick call to verify, as having 5 gallons of 100 unleaded or even E85 ready to go would be nice to have.

Even our spare tires need to have OLOA 2011 branded on the sidewalls by tirerack in order to run them on the tracks in competition. However, if you can use an emergency spare, then a non stamped full size spare should be fine to get you to the next track at least.

Next up are some shots of the car with the old graphics stripped and showing the new rubber and rim combo. . .














And some pictures of mounting up the hitch on the car . . .













Thanks to LOSER for letting me borrow your hitch and to LIQQUID for the pro wiring job on the trailer lights!

He drives in it the street all the time. Nothing like driving passed McDonalds and seeing this in the drive through! We raised the car about an inch for the trip though.

Left it only to possibly add a bit of reinforcement for the hitch mount

Lemme know what kind of gas mileage that thing gets between events on the highway - with the trailer and the wing!

Nice.

The car is looking great. Are the weds the 9.5 +35? Are the fenders flared or is the picture tricking me? Also, those tires are light for the size!

Good luck, have fun!
