I stand corrected, I just couldn't believe that someone with a RX-7 and a few Audi's didn't go out and buy a big truck or something else as well.

Could you be so kind to explain how he's tearing up his 7?!

He's not the only one to pull a trailer with his 7. Both DamonB and Maxcooper pull a trailer with their 7. Last time I checked, neither have any problems doing so.

I was taking pictures of the the skis to put on ebay. I just wanted to see what everyones reaction would be. You were correct in the first picture the trailer is being held up by my floor jack. The second by a jack stand underneath the center of the trailer.

Heres the ebay ad:

It doesnt hurt the car. I plan to tow with my Rx7, about a 500lb trailer (with load).

gonna build a custom aluminum hitch to reduce weight

Hmm. I can't imagine towing 2 waverunners up a boat ramp with my 6-puck clutch. LOL. I just looked at your location. I'm sure you know Ashley. I can only imagine what she would say about this.....
