Not sure where you're headed......? Anyway, the only time the car sees a trailer is when I have to take it to the drag strip or for long trips down the highway. The alignment was a ways off after rebuilding the suspension so I definitely couldn't have driven in the 40 miles to the shop.
The closest 1/4 mile drag strip is about 210 miles away....which is really lame. She's definitely not a "show" car, but it's not a "race" car, either. I ran 13.5s@100 at 3,600' elevation, but the track I'm going to in July is at 2,200' elevation. Hopefully that'll get me a few tenths.
The car haulers are friggin awesome, actually... Loading and unloading takes just a couple minutes and they're very sturdy. I pulled the Mustang down the highway at 65 mph and it handled great.
I took them off a few months ago. I thought about selling the truck so I put the stockers on with the big ol' Duratracs.... I ended up just selling the police wheels and keeping the stockers on there. They look decent....not awesome....but decent.

when loading my truck up a time or two, though, I had to be careful not to give it too much gas as to not drive it straight off the end and into the truck doing the towing 
Ha...you definitely have to be careful. It makes it kind of a pain with a 3000rpm stall converter, as well. You have to wrap it clear up to go anywhere, then once it locks up it reallllly wants to move! Haha... Just have to be good with two-feet driving....work the brakes and the throttle together and don't have to waste time moving your foot back and forth between the peddles...
She also got a new exhaust system while she was in the shop for the alignment. Here's a pic of the Mustang's new h-pipe and exhaust cutouts for the track...she also got some new Flowmaster 40-series Delta Flows...

No disrespect, I can tell by the Uhaul that you DRIVE IT, which is the way cars SHOULD be
that makes it even better when you have a cool, great looking car and drive it. If you had a huge car hauler trailer then we'd suspect you haul it and don't drive it, hence my comment about a rented trailer....means you DRIVE it...props man
Ah, I gotcha... It's far from a daily driver, but when I drive it I reallllllllly drive it.No disrespect, I can tell by the Uhaul that you DRIVE IT, which is the way cars SHOULD be

I guess you can tell that from my sig.... But that also means it's far from a show car. It's just a good, solid running car that won't win any car shows and won't win all the races, but it's a helluva a lot of fun!
