About a year ago I purchase a 24 ft Team Spirit Trailer from Proline. I picked it up at Team Spirit in Indiana. Before I got out of Indiana on my way back to Virginia the vent cover came off because the bolts were not installed.

Can't lock the side door because it's misaligned.

First time I unloaded my car the floor molding across the back of the trailer moved causing several of the screws to push, not pull, out of the floor.

Now I have side markers falling of because the bolts are broken.

Very unhappy with the Proline after sale response. Basically the trailer and PROLINE suck!

I bought a Legend horse trailer for my wife all aluminum, 3horse slant with living quarters. It was a little higher but well worth the money. Pulls like a dream, everything opens and closes like a vault. She told me everywhere she goes someones trying to buy it. I'd have to give 5 stars for Legend.

Hey Dave,
Check with Chris Barker at Barker Trailer Sales. He is awsome to deal with!!! I bought a new 44' Pace from him and never even had to go to his office. I ordered it straight from him and then went to the factory in northern Indiana to pick it up. He is really a great guy to deal with, not to mention a fellow drag racer.
Just my opinion???

Good luck with your search, remember for the dragster little or no beavertail and get the dropped axles, and extra height helps (longer door). 8) JB
Why no beavertail in a dragster trailer?

A dragster will rub at the peak of the beaver tail even if the trailer is jacked up. A trailer with a flat floor once you get the door level with the floor the dragster will load with no trouble.

The thing to get is a car that wont rub and have ground clearance, my current car wouldnt rub but I've had a few that would. I like the inverted beaver tail (dragster package) trailer very nice

I think sc4405 was talking about a hardtail dragster. David thats one thing Im going to enjoy about a suspended dragster, the extra ground clearance. On our Mike Bos dragster we use a dragster trolly and have to remove the nose piece.
