Has anyone ever successfully towed a teener on an open trailer with a car cover? If so how did you do it and what did you use? I'm worried about the track car I'm building being in the elements (rain) when towing, especially on long trips. Budget doesn't allow for an enclosed trailer this year.

I've been towing an open trailer and race teener for over a decade.
the current car has no windows, and its been about 7 years so far... we tow to Oklahoma, Texas, Nebraska, and Kansas every year (p.s. its guaranteed to rain every time you go to Oklahoma) just take towels. no way on the cover. plan on drying it out every day anyways just from humidity half the time |
