If trailering is available, do it. I lost a brake line at an autox event and it cost me $600 to get home on a flatbed and I was only 60 miles from home. I immediately started looking for a trailer at that point. Sad thing is, that $600 could have been put towards my open trailer. That really burned me. Plus, by trailering you will arrive so much more relaxed, be less rushed the morning of the event. All you have to do is unload, go through tech and you are ready. At the end of the day, the same is also true. You will be tired, physically and mentally. Much easier to load it onto a trailer, strap it down and head home versus flipping tires, loading the car, etc.
Just be sure the trailer has a winch or at least bring a heavy duty come-a-long so you can get a broken car up onto a trailer. Without a winch, getting the car up onto the trailer could be difficult in the event of a catostrophic failure. Chris This post has been edited by 1qwikbird: Mar 10 2011, 10:53 PM |
