There are several Forum members who have a small 4X4 foot track ( or tire trailer) to transport tools and tires to and from the track....
Here's a pic of one of the nicer ones that has been posted on the forum... by Dr. Chill...
I think it is still for sale... unfortunately he is in Florida
and I'm in Michigan...

I'm a fan of the car show and cruising... but I realized that I have far more fun beating the **** out of my dirty/chipped car on track than I do being **** over the wax job.
You do get some great looks towing racing tires in a Z06.

To each his own. If you want to tow something with YOUR vet by all means have at it.
So you are going to tow a trailer for tires to go to the track to race the vet? What happens when you wreck/break the vet at the track?
If you rarely go to the track anyway, why not rent a truck with a car hauler trailer? Haul the vet throw the tires in the back, along with tools to work on the vet if something happens?
Sorry guys, I just wouldn't tow anything with a vet.. but that's just me.

Renting a truck and trailer each weekend would get expensive... about the cost of the tire trailer setup. So for many that's not an option.
For me.... if I broke I knew I could get it yanked home w/ AAA.

The probability of it getting broken at the track is only slightly higher than it getting broken on a road trip...
Maybe some members don't take their Vette on road trips either....

I'll chime in here, the vette is my only vehicle and I regularly tow things with it. I have a 5x8 trailer that I haul DJ equipment with
Bad Picture of it attached
I also use the draw-tite hitch. I have a C5 logo hitch cover I put on its place when not in use and it looks just like an exhaust plate. Car hasn't broken yet!

I haven't read through the posts thus far, but I can fit 4 wheels with tires in my C5 coupe
Just bring a few blankets with you and you're ready to go. Just yet another reason that the C5 coupe is a better buy than a Z06(dependent on many personal factors of course).
