Getting to the track

Cyclone FE,

Any good quality electric winch mounted at floor level in a toter will pull
in or allow you to roll out your 3800# race car. It would be good if it had
a full fold down rear door (similar to car trailer), but if the cost is within
your budget then the full car hoist tailgate would be great (similar to the
units used by Top Fuel funny cars or dragsters.

I remember a stock eliminator racer who raced the old Etter/Sudley E/SA
Plymouth S/W (383 dual 4 BBR) and he hauled it in the back of a used
UHaul 24 foot box truck. The bottom edge of the rear opening was about
4 feet off the ground and he had these loooong *** aluminum ramps with
support stands at certain point under the ramps. Scared me just to watch
him unload the car. This was at the old Orange County Raceway.
