Thanks so much!
I have a friend in our club who rents the standard U-Haul trailer and an F-150 to haul his 996 Turbo to the track. He loves it. (Never really paid much attention as to how he loaded it though.

Are you the "modded boxster" Viperbob has been talking about?

I don't think so. I've only had the C4S to one event so far in November at CMP. Before that I had a silver C5 Z06 that I've run at VIR, CMP, and once at Sebring from 2005-2007. Also ran a little 4-banger front-drive Acura from 2002 - 2005.

In any case - looking forward to meeting y'all and having a blast! Fingers crossed for great weather!

Thanks so much for the info man, I saw the different variations for open trailers and therefore got confused lol, i'm going to rent it ASAP and lock it down!
