How much room is left after you are loaded up.. I have a golf cart and after I'm loaded up with the GC is in I only have a few inches to play with and my race car is small.. if I were to replace the cart I would look at a small quad.. something that has gears so it can pull a car.. my cart will pull about 4000#

I use my golf cart with a push bar & I also have a retractable tow strap on the back for other peoples cars not set up with a chute mount push bar. I also have four wheelers I could use too if needed.
I see more and more people using Smart cars with a push bar & they actually smaller than a golf cart & the people usually get to sit in the staging lanes with the A/C (not a bad idea).

I'm concerned with the weight. My trailer is 5200 empty and the car is 2850 . This puts me at 8050, tools, nitrous, etc I'm close to 9,000 loaded. I don't want a pit vehicle that's 800lbs. That Yamaha breeze looks good, as long as it can pull my car. Hopefully they are light, under 500lbs?
