Towing With Car Cover On????

[DAVID GAGNARD]

Guys;

My question is,has anyone ever towed their car on an open trailer with a car cover on the car?????

Going to a car show in two weeks,six hour drive one way..Planning on driving my car if the weather is good,if not I can and will tow it on my 16' open car hauler....I have a pretty good,tight fitting car cover,but going 70-75 mph on the interstate for six hours,just wandering will it "flap" in the breeze and could it and would it rub enough on the paint to hurt it?????

The only time my car has ever been on the trailer is a couple of times a year when I go to the drags with it. I tow it just in case I have a breakdown while racing. The two drag strips I go to are a little more than an hours drive and if something happened there,my wife could not and would not be able to hook up the trailer to my truck and come get me.......

I do drive my car a lot and have driven it anywhere from 150 to 400 miles in a day,so the trip does not bother me as far as the car "making it",just do not like to drive in the rain,w/s wipers are kinda noisy and I have a small leak on the w/s on the lower right front that drips on the floorboard,since I do not drive in the rain,I have never bothered to fix it. Also,driving in the rain gets everything real dirty and grimey and since I'm going to a car show and will be advertising my car for sale,I'd like to keep it as clean as possible....

Just wondering about the car cover and possiblilty of dulling or scuffing the paint job. BTW,it is a basecoat/clearcoat paint job with three double wet coats of clear over the paint.....

Anyone with any expirence please chime in and let me know how it went.........

Thanks;
