I disagree. Towing a trailer in a z to go on a camping trip=:shakes head:

Towing a trailer in a z to the track with wheels/tires/tools=:tup:

Its not a perfect solutoon, but it beats having to buy am extra car or rent something. The trailer will mainly be used to transport race tires for autox and track. Can you think of a way to jam 4 295 tires in tje z?? I dont doubt that it isnt great for the car, but at the same time it is no different than tracking or drifting or idling the car

Having a friend or one of my sons drive my F-150 -- FTW.

/\ well, if you bring you're own pit crew, that's just baller status right there.

cossie1600 01-19-2012 04:00 PM

Lets see how many times they will do it before they stop

"Baller status" is a good thing, right? I am old and not completely up to speed on modern vernacular.

They keep doing it because of my charming personality. :icon17:

In my kids' case, they are usually working off money they owe me. :tup:

If I was in the same situation as Cossie, I wouldn't be bothered by towing with a Z. Just use some common sense and slow down. After seeing all kinds of cars that aren't rated for towing in the US pulling 20' rv trailers in europe at autobahn speeds (generally ~80mph) I wouldn't have a problem pulling a 600 lb trailer on surface roads.

yup. :tup:

I'm not exactly a spring chicken myself but I like to stay somewhat current on what the kid's these days think is cool.

Go in style... buy a used mack truck flatbed. :tup:

Trust me I would love to, but common sense kicks in and prevents me from doing it.

If only they made one of these for the 370Z, it'd be badass x2.

EDIT:

EVEN BETTER!!

Also, to the anti-towing crowd: towing with a "sports car" is hardcore. Stop being silly, kids.
