hi  everyone
i am considering towing my roadster to the track, using a tow  bar.  the car 
will roll on its own wheels.  this seems to be the  cheapest way to do it.  
must i de-tach the drive shaft?  anything  else i should do to the car to make 
it tow more easily?
thank you in  advance.

Make sure the tow bar is attached to something  solid. The original bumper 
mounting location is a little weak without some  reinforcement. As to the drive 
shaft, it depends on whether oil is slung in the  trans. Hopefully someone 
with a gear box out can remove the bottom plate, put it  in neutral and turn the 
tail shaft. If gears below the oil level turn then you  are good to go.
