If you have a trailer, then would't necessarily need to do the preventive engine swap IMO,just have a spare ready to go to minimize the downtime. I have just been through all of this, and it is not fun but having a trailer is awesome
Realistically tho --

Cost of trailer + cost of truck ownership comes into play.

I've always admired Tom's ability to drive to/from the track.

I do have a drive to the track Boxster S -- and I love the convenience.

That being said I have a Cayenne TT and a 24' aluminum enclosed for my
actual race cars -- including a new to me Spec Boxster.

A quote attributed to Greg Brown from Precision Motor Werks, Anaheim, CA "What part of Porsche Racing did you think is going to be cheap, is it the the Porsche part, or is it the Racing part?"

stone's is a race car, not a track car. if it walks like a duck, etc.
