Jamie at Freeman might be able to help. He's been helpful to club racers and it would be worth a few minutes to reach out to him. I only have their public facebook info handy: https://www.facebook.com/FTRServices
Some of them have exit doors on the drivers side that make it easy. Without it, I may need some contortionist lessons.

Not sure what happened to the phone but he's in biz, confirmed today. He is available at jamie at ftrservices dot net. No interest other than trying to help a fellow racer.

A friend of mine has a Raptor that he pulls a 24' featherlite with (when it isn't behind is motorhome), says it pulls it no problem from a power standpoint, but that you need to watch your tongue weight as the suspension on the raptor is a little different than normal in that aspect, so you want a little lighter tongue weight than with a regular truck.

Something to consider in a trailer. I've had a few. My current one has a winch and an escape door. I really like being able to drive right in, and hop out the escape door. Saves time over the winch, and is much easier, IMHO. I like having the winch in case something goes wrong with the car at the track.

Thanks everyone! I found this ATC at Trailers of the East Coast. Mark was a joy to deal with. Got it done quickly and didn't give any of the salesman hooplah. $17950 all in an I pick it up in Charlotte. From what I've seen, a fantastic value on a brand new trailer and everything is as pictured with the exception of led lights, which are an upgrade for 2015 in this style. It will be in from the factory on Saturday. Brad at RPM was a close second. Has a loaded InTech for high 23's. But, he isn't nearly as easy to deal with..had to pursue him instead of him pursuing his customer. He stated, "I've got 25 of these ordered and sold already." He didn't really didn't need my business and it showed. Thanks for the guidance and advice!!!

Great Thread! I have been struggling with the same thing. I'm going to call them tomorrow. Best of luck with your new trailer.

Ask for Mark. He said he would honor the same price to anyone I recommended, all inclusive. The same exact trailer at the place in Daytona is $1800 higher with the freight they charge.
