Should I drive my car to the track?

If you can get tall tires for the trip, that would be my choice. I towed my Barracuda when it was a full on racer(4400 stall, 265 @ .050 and 13.5:1. 80 miles with your gears won't hurt. In the 60's I used to drive 40 miles with 4.56 gears and a 26 " tire. I'd race and then drive home. Now I drive 75 miles each way, but with a 2500 stall, 3.23 gears and a 27" tire. Around here, a U Haul car trailer is about $80 a day. That would be the best choice, especially if you have air in the tow vehicle.
