figured I could load all my track gear (slicks, jack, tools) on the trailer and not have to mess up the interior or trunk. The guys that trailer their car to the track get mad enough when a street car beats them, how do you think they'd feel if the car that towed the trailer beats them?

I've seen plenty of 5.0's with trailer hitches, some were GT's with the bumper cover bent all up.

I'm in the military and claim FL as my home of record. That tag is from the previous owner who was also in the military. He now ownes this Shelby GT 500. It's great to still be in contact with him incase I have any questions.
video taken at MIR, Mustang Club of Maryland was there. I have more videos of alot of stangs if anyone is interested.

I'm relocating to Kansas soon for training in preparation for deployment. I want to have my stang with me in Kansas (there's a track about 20 minutes from the base), so in order to get all my stuff out there i figured the trailer would be the best way to go. Plus my truck has 160K miles and probably wouldn't make the trip out there. The previous owner already had a hitch on there once before to tow some jet ski's.

If i could put one on my car that could be hidden i would, just for the sake of pulling a small trailer with an extra set of wheels in it.

Thanks! It's amazing what a bath and some detailing will do.


A/C hasn't worked in years, recently pulled the A/C lines and canister to clean up the bay and waiting to get an eliminator kit. replaced the oil fill cap with an Edlebrock breather and need to get a powerpipe or something to replace the dryer hose
