JH, you are welcome anytime in our pits.  That goes for anyone at speedweek, we enjoy talking with fellow speed enthusiasts.  Man your car looks long, how much wheelbase did you add?  Looking good see you soon and I will keep you posted on when we will get there. :-D

  That is a great tow set up you have there.  I enjoy looking at trailers, push bars, etc. almost as much as looking at others race cars.

The wheelbase is 129.5" [almost 11'] (130 is class max, stock Fiat wheelbase is 7'...basically added 4' in wheels)
There is about 3' from nose tip to center of front wheel
3' from center of rear wheel to back of the spills.

This equals just over 17'.....wont fit in trailer unless the chute and spills are off!

I guess it's a good thing that you didn't have a bigger trailer!  :-D

Good luck, JH.
