OT sorta: Pictures of your trucks/trailers/towing mechanisms
I'd just like to see what people use as a method of getting their track-only cars to-from the track!
don't think this should be under appearance but if should be...then it should be!
*EDIT: Pictures or descriptions if you don't have pictures!

F-350 Lariat Crew Cab Powerstroke Turbo Diesel ownZ comfort, and power.
Now I just need to stop spending money making the truck cool.

F250 Powerstroke Diesel with a Superchips Micro Tuner using the +90 HP / 175 torque program. I actually get better mileage with this setting than stock or +70 HP program. 4R100 auto tranny with a shift kit & the crappy 'mechanical diode' 2nd gear mechanism replaced - since it sheared off. The truck is towing a 26' Classic Dominator enclosed trailer. I am using a Reese Dual Cam anti-sway device & 1K lbs weight distributing bars. I don't actually need the anti-sway as the trailer handles pretty darn good when loaded properly.
Sorry, no pics. Johng has a few I think.

(though it includes my daily driver, not my race car)
Big block Chrysler power, arh, arh!
It took me to CMP, BeaveRun, Summit Point (twice) and VIR this year, while bringing most of the comforts of home along.
Works much better than what I used a couple of times

Just picked up this '97 Ford E350 V10 van and '02 Santek V-Nose trailer in May. Made trips from LA to Laguna Seca, Portland and Las Vegas hauling the Miata or the Z with no troubles. The trailer has a fold-down dinette/bed, cabinets, finished walls, ceiling and floor, and 12/110 lighting.

For the longer trips like Road America, I took advantage of the team rig. We can haul four Miatas at a time.

This is the best I have, but it's essentially like mine with a topper. You can see the back end of the truck next to your trailer here...

'99 3/4 ton Chevy Suburban LT. 454 gas V8, 4.10 locking rear axle. This picture was taken before the GS-R had completed its transformation into full time race car...

Thanks John. Hmmm. I think that is the car parked on Sunday while everyone else is racing!

This is the pic that I took this weekend to advertise the '98 Ram 2500 V-10 for sale. It has spent more time pulling horse trailers than car trailers of late and we are considering selling it and the Infiniti to get a Yukon/Tahoe to serve both purposes. Very clean and strong with 85k miles, asking $10,500 (boy not included). If it doesn't sell, we'll just keep it and carry on as it is a great hauler.
I have a 2001 Ford Supercrew with a 3''/4'' Beltech lowering kit and rear air bags. The thing tows really nice with absolutly not bottoming or swaying or anything. I wish msn groups would allow link in the picture but just to the link.

I spent all year getting ready to buy a tow vehicle, but in the meantime we had to beg, borrow, and steal trucks and trailers:
Our sponsors trailer and my friends Tahoe:

Casa de Hybrids:

I finally bought a truck a couple weeks ago, in time for the last race of the season. My plans to buy a diesel were nixed when JHP sold the enclosed trailer...I just couldn't justify the cost.
I also couldn't pass up the deal Toyota gave me, so I ended up with this:
Damn all you diesel-having *****! You make me jealous.

As for Tow Vehicle, my partner and brother have an 87 Jeep Cherokee. But when we enduro we use my dad's 38' foot Diesil pusher Coach.
The trailer is my favorite. We use the trailer for a 98 Mastercraft. Yes, that is a boat trailer. Just modified with about $200 worth of lumber. Ask another NorCal guy if you don't believe me. Yes, we get teased alot.

Here's a few shots of the newest addition to my CRX-filled (three and counting) driveway. Picked it up this weekend and I'm happy as punch. It even matches my old tub. 
It's an '89 GMC Suburban 2500 w/ 454 and only 72K mi on the ODO...

It's in pretty much immaculate condition for its age w/ no visible signs of run anywhere.
Now, does anyone have a lead on a trailer?

I think the motorhome makes up for the boat/car trailer..
