Thought I'd chime in here too.  I tow the Spitfire in a enclosed 20' 
Pace behind a 28' Winnebago.  It works great for the most part and 
allows us to stay at the track which we have always liked.  The average 
mileage drops about 2 mpg from 9.3 to 7.3 when towing.  Gotta drop a 
gear on hills and a strong headwind coming at a slight angle from the 
front (North Dakota) will drop the mileage even further and make the 
driving intense.    I shredded a rear tire on the trailer going to 
Laguna Seca last June for the Kastner Cup race and didn't even know it 
until someone pulled up beside me and waved and pointed.
