Those of you who tow more then 100 miles to the track, thoughts on front wheel cradles.

Dean,

I put wooden "V" blocks under each side of the front axle to keep the front tires up off the floor.  And for sure use a chassis saver or some other means to support the frame.

I use to run a pair of the chassis shop rubber ones but haven't used any with our new trailer I have them sitting on the shelf

I tie down over the rear slicks (air'd up to 12psi) and tie down the center of the car.  Front end never moves.
