Safe travels Joe. Have fun at the convention. I won't be making this one.

Do the UV rays from the sun play with the rubber?

Have you ever noticed a purpleish sheen on a race tire? Thats the uv rays deterioating the tire as well as the oil drying out of the rubber.

If you ever tried to get everything you need for a weekend at the track inside the car, you'd know why we all have such a boner over it.

So much easier to have it all locked up on a mini trailer.

Joe, If you haven't already, buy a hitch lock. It comes in handy if you have to park and leave the trailer somewhere. Just don't lose the keys...

And buy a good lock that can be sealed from the elements!!! Weatherproof locks FTMFW. I have one that isn't weatherproof, and guess what? I can't get my hitchball off of my towing hitch.
