Why do you want to trailer the car there? Why not get a friend to drive your Shogan up and you drive your FD?
Just an idea :)

If you drive of boost to the show you\'ll probably only spend as much on fuel getting there and back as you will highering a trailer... if that makes sense :)
What could ever go wrong on the strip? :p

Any decent trailer plus a set of wood "ramps" would do it.

I have made ramps to get a jack under my car and use them for this stuff too.

Mine are 10" x 2" timber which I\'ve chamfered the end down and about 2\' long - cost bugger all as they were offcuts.

you\'ll get that on any decent trailor with a tilt bed, or even enough lift on the jockey wheel. most places you hire from will be able to cater for you. dont get a pikey one off a "mate" where the bed is on top of the wheels - it will end in tears
