No but Schmi Red Horse and Gordon's flaming Monte Carlo don't have a trailer hitch sticking out the back. My question was because...with F1 cars or Stock Cars or most other types of rigs, you can park one or two cars in a normal sized trailer. So I got very low on the intelligence ladder and tried to figure out how they truck the trucks since those big boys most likely won't roll inside a trailer. I would suppose, they use a flatbed trailer. ?? dave henrie (me? silly? ) <VBG> "Txl" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BzZY6.877$[email hidden]... > yes of course....and Schumacher drives to the races in his F1, you neversaw

Well in fact we do put the racetrucks into normal closed trailers. The max width of the race truck has to be 2.54 meters (or 100 inches for our US friends) so they fit in a trailer provided you can "open the legs" of the trailer when you load the racetruck in it. The usual trailer has the front for the "living quarters" and the back with the racetruck facing backwards, with some storage place coming on top of the trailer hitch. For a more complete information there has been FIA rules changes this year, last year the trailer hitch was a REAL one with a minimum weight of 100 Kilos ( or 125 I don't recall) and able to pull a 5 ton load (JOST model something for us) but this year we have a plastic one, weighting about 10 kilos and able to pull.....NOTHING. But for the most pressing question in your post, yes we can load the truck in a trailer....

ok, so here is the typical R.A.S answer. Well we do race with the trailer full of mechanics whose job is to throw things at the other drivers.... That WOULD be fun wouldn't it ? "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message news: KnaZ6.235809$[email hidden]...

Absolutely! And under the rules, they have to drive to the factories and pickup their own tires and oil filters and such. -- Mark Jeangerard "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:UYQY6.227765$[email hidden]... > Do those big semi (tractor trailer){MBTR} racing rigs haul their own > trailers to the various races they participate in?? > dave henrie > > >
