New Trailer and Balcony Nov 23rd

I finally leveled up! No more obnoxious process loading onto a high flatbed trailer or worrying about my car in terrible weather at the track. 60mph winds and hail can obviously be hazardous to a racecar with plastic windows and no door windows.

 I purchased the trailer from Apache Trailers directly from the factory and it took them about a month to produce it from the time I bought it. Its a simple trailer, 8 1/2 by 24 foot enclosed with a side door and rear flip down ramp. Also has electric brakes on two axles and a breakaway controller. Such a great purchase! Was $6500 all said and done.
 I plan on putting my tire machine inside along with a compressor and generator. That's for later though.
As for the balcony, it was probably one of my worst days of driving I have ever had. I dont know exactly what It was but nothing was really working out for me. I knew my line was terrible so that may have been throwing me off. But by the end of the day I was figuring out clutch kick entries in 3rd gear and getting on the power after downshifting to second so that was a success I suppose. Pictures and videos will be updated shortly.
