Renting a multi-car driver/trailer
Has anyone ever rent a driver and multi car trailer for track days or the national event half way across the country? With gas prices being $4 a gallon, it seems to make sense to "carpool". Just wondering if anyone has tried it and know how much it is roughly.

If you buy a trailer and own a diesel truck to pull it, it can be cost effective over the long term. With a 1 ton quad cab truck, you can pull a 3 axle 3 car trailer and still ride in style. Just make sure you have the correct drivers license. You wont need a commercial license if you dont make money and only haul your car or a friends car but you might need a class A non commercial which is very easy to get. |
My Uncle once told me, "There are two types of people who race. Those who are wealthy and those who will soon be poor."
He was a wise man ... |
There are several places that offer transportation to and from national events. Usually it's a couple thousand dollars depending on when and where.

He was a wise man ... But yeah, I started with a large fortune... :lol: :icon_no2: |
Now that's a good rate, but then the drive is also 4 hours and I assume it is one day. It just seems stupid to have 5 guys driving 10-15 hours when you can rent one truck to do the trip, I guess the big trucks are expensive
