Successful towing with a Class C often means having it aligned with the aft end weighted to simulate the higher tongue weight of a trailer and some special helper springs. IRV2.com is a good resource, lots of Class C’s out there pulling trailers that aren’t racers. With that I yield to those with first hand experience...
Jim, I don’t think Glenn is confused; the Class B is legit and I’m familiar with at least one racer who tows successfully using a similar trailer and a door car that weighs around 3000lb.
