Anyone have a trailer hitch on their Evo?

I've got a small tire trailer that I haul to track events, it holds my race wheels/tires, tools, etc.

Anyone running a trailer hitch on an Evo and towing one of these? Does Da Lan make hitches for Evos?

I like the law enforcement-enticing removal of the license plate on this one.

I have been looking into one for that same reason! Nothing looks better than a race car with a road bicycle on a rack, or a crotch rocket that matches the car on a trailer! Whats someone going to say when you have a 10 sec car pulling a 9/10 second bike? They cant beat you, thats for damn sure! lol.

Still no real info on a tow hitch. Come on, people have to be using something other than a custom made hitch...

For those who attend driving events and require extra sets of tires/wheels, it's much more convenient to put the tires in a trailer rather than attempt to stuff them in the interior.

Oh, and a Yukon doesn't quite drive as well around Watkins Glen as an Evo, either....

Who in their right state of mind would want to put a trailer hitch on their sports car? Get a truck for the Evo's sake. Haul the Evo and all the tires you need

I've already said why I want one. I'm not going to buy a freaking truck just so I can haul my gear to the track. Let's see, spend thousands on a truck and a trailer, plus insurance, plus paying to store them vs using the tire trailer I already own. Hmmmm...
