Shame your so far from me,Ive sold my one for £50 but the guy hasn't come to pick it up.it's home made but no death trap,proper indespension units,strengthened ramps etc but I just don't need it know as I've got a proper car trailer,I paid £260 2nd hand for it originally!!!I've towed all over the country with it but lent it to a mate a few months ago and he managed to bend the bit where the towhitch goes hence y so cheap,could fix it for £30 at any welders!!!

Dollys and a frames can only be used for recovery thats how the aa and rac use them as they are just getting people off the road u cannot tow your track car with one! you will need a trailer for that and if your track car weighs more than 750kg the trailer will need to be braked!
