Default Sequoia tow show car and 7 people riding

My friend went to a drift event in Houston, it was a 300 mi trip one way. The Sequoia pull the Mitsu Eclipse plus 7 people riding with ease. He had to manually shift the gears when not on the highway and a few sway but it had no other problems besides that. And this was in 100 degrees temp with high humidity. The trailer and car I would say weigh roughly 5000 lbs or more, the Eclipse is heavy with its Supra conversion.

I was going to use my Tundra to tow it but I had to show up late, next show is in Oklahoma, I will be towing the 350z.

Just thought I let ya know!

No motor swap, that's too extreme, I would slap him if he ever did that. It's only the body work, Top Secret Supra wide body with 19" Volk TE's. Right now it's consider as a bastardized car, this car started 7 yrs ago when imports scene was big. Right now it's consider as rice, we make fun of him all the time.

Here are some photo, all work done in the garage.

From experience you may want to move that car back a little on the trailer.....looks like you can relieve some tongue weight and it will pull 100X's better (the center shackle on the leafs of the trailer should be level).

Other than that I am not into ricer's but that is a nice looking ride
