Tire trailer for track day and autocross
Well, I was at the point that I wanted to haul my autocross tires to the event,especially when the tread is getting low. One of my friends wrecked his car in the rain,hydroplaned .
The home built trailers I've see just wasn't going to cut it for me. My wife my have said "There's no way you're putting a trailer on the Camaro ". So I was lucky enough to be at a event in Pennsylvania and spotted a tire trailer and after some discussion and a few emails they where able to build me a custom tire trailer my wife would allow behind the Camaro. I figured I'd leave a few pictures and see what you guys think. No one is building anything like this that I've found. It tows like a dream,could not tell it was behind me. Picked it up yesterday 200 miles http://www.leroyengineering.com Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem...

Very cool! Thanks for posting. I've been looking for options to my enclosed trailer for short trips to the track.

It has suspension on the trailer so it doesn't bounce like all the others.
I'm kind of close to them and they made / fabricated a hitch mount to the car while I waited so now they have the specs to duplicate it. You can't tell it has a hitch when not towing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Like to see a pic of how the receiver attaches to the car. Are you able to completely remove the receiver from the car when you're not using it?

That is a damn fine trailer. Very well done.
The only additional "feature" I would want is a dedicated place to carry a heavy duty floor jack. I try to stay away from the cheap, lightweight ones. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Fuel jugs fit in next to the box well.[/QUOTE]
