I was watching Nascar the other day and started thinking about the fancy pit boxes all the teams have. I've been tossing around the idea of getting a small trailer to haul behind my car when I drive to open track days, big car shows, and auto-x events. So now I'm considering building or adapting a small utility (4x6) trailer as a "track day trailer"
4x6 utility trailer provisions to mount track rims jack Tool box Chairs EZ up Cooler/ grill (I have one of those fire and Ice things they sold a couple years ago) Air tank etc etc I'm also probably looking at selling my truck since It sits 90% of the time at $4.00 per gallon, so the trailer would also see use as the "Home maintenance and Lowe's trip" trailer, and possibly to haul a 4 wheeler. So has anyone else done something like this? Post descriptions, Pictures, and lessons learned if you have. Thanks |

I, too, used to pull a small trailer to track events behind the camaro. I blew a clutch disc and thought I could limp 85 miles home since nobody else was heading my way with a trailer. I got half way home and had to put it on the shoulder. I have AAA but they do nothing but charge you commercial rates to tow the trailer home after the car is loaded on their flatbed. That was the final straw. I bought Mitch's open trailer and now I tow the car. Much easier on the nerves. Granted I had to beef up the suburban, but what the heck, just another project!
