Tow to the staging lanes! - 01/23/13 03:13 AM
How many people tow to the staging lanes and what do you use? I just bought a Polaris Rzr. I hope it works out ok? I want to load it side ways on my open trailer.

We tow the heads up car to the lanes and around the pits. I have a hoopty of a Yamaha gas golf cart, many here can attest to it's state. Ugly as sin but does the job. I drive the big tire car and ironically it is the faster of the two

I will keep it stock because I will use it around the ranch, pits and camping.

I have the same. Don't have to worry about anyone stealing mine that is for sure. I have had my old Yamaha for 5 or 6 years now & have done nothing but put gas in it, weld a removeable push bar on the front & a tow hook on the back.

Mine is pretty much the same..Very doubtful anyone woudl steal it. Although it has been backed into twice by different trucks. Then there is the custom duct tape seat upholstery 
O yeah forget about a radio or even a roof. We have had to put a battery in it and a headlight, got in trouble at a track for no light at night. So it has a single fog lite bolted on front

Great, thanks for the input. Why is it better to push then to pull.

when you push there is not slop to worry about , you dont have to 2 people try to brake at the same time. its just an all out better situation. plus you can go forward or backward with great ease.. we went to a push bar and not looked back

We use a gas powered golf cart with a push bar on front that has two 4 wheeler tires one on each side to match up to the rear tires on the dragster,works well except on tight turns.If there are a lot of tight turns we use the tow strap.

The only thing I don't like about the push bar is that most of the race cars I help push don't have horns & there always seems to be someone that doesn't see or know you are coming up on them & are in the way.

what difference does it make who blows a horn? sound tends to travel.
