C10 - 307 - Manual - [TOWING QUESTION{

Friends,

I have just bought an 85 IROC Z for road and drag racing and the such. I'm going to be towing this to the track with my 72 C10 Stepside. I think a 2" receiver hitch and anti sway bars with eletric brakes will be ok, BUT, I want to know what you guys think.
I will be taking as much weight out of the race car as possible, SO it will be much lighter than a stock Z.

Will this tranny (3 on the tree) handle such a load? I haven't bought a trailer yet, but I'll be going for 1 with electric brakes, AND my C10 has power brakes and rotors.

Anybody do this? Experiences, before I buy a trailer and hitch setup?

Am I just crazy? (well, my wife has already answered that). Help me convince her otherwise!!!

Brian
