Hi. For those trailering their Radicals on an open trailer, do you recommend removing the wing? I'd be concerned about the wing creating enough downforce (even at 55-65 mph) that it may adversely affect trailer handling. What are your experiences and/or recommendations?
As much as I'd love to get an enclosed trailer, I would need to buy a more powerful tow vehicle. My 4Runner probably couldn't safely pull an enclosed trailer.
I pull mine with an open trailer and have never had an issue. I have an air dam on the front of my trailer so that may help offset the impact of the rear wing. I figured if there was going to be an issue I would pull it on by the rear but it has been fine.

Thanks, Clark. That's good info.
I tow my Viper ACRE on an open trailer with no issue. That wing is MUCH larger than the radical wing. At 65-75mph it's just not fast enough to have a big enough impact on the trailer/tongue weight.
