My guess is Johnny, he's the only one I can think of that would do this.
What colour was the car?

I have a hitch on my Laser. I use it constantly. Mostly for my bike rack but small trailers are no problem either.

Do plan to throw one on the Talon as well to tow stuff to the track (spares, tires, tools, etc.).
