What I have seen some guys do with race cars is they use blocks or stands
made that they put under the chassis where they strap to it, so they pull
the chassis down tight on the blocks to the trailer.  This way the car is
not bouncing on its own suspension nor are they loading down the suspension
very much.  Not sure if that's an option with your car.

Torsion suspension on a trailer typically allows the trailer to sit a
little lower,  because the trailer frame is basically sitting right on the
axle.

Extended tongues are nice as gives you room to mount a generator on it.

Wiring the trailer for line voltage is really nice if you need to work on
the car at where ever your going.  You can use standard light fixtures and
outlets, run a compressor or other power tools as long as you have a
generator or a place to plug into.
