By putting two left side wheels/tires on the car before you push it into the trailer. That way the car actually fits between cabinets and wheel wells in a fully built-out, enclosed trailer. WOW, the stupidity of some.
Sorry, just had to dispell one of the many stupid comments being thrown around. The claims being made just get dumber and dumber by those pushing rumor, conspiracy, and personal opinion.

Na , you can push them in with the tires you run on the track. Fits right in. No need to change to 2 left rears.

Not always. Many teams put two lefts on so there is room to walk past the car and it makes it easier to move the car around with two tires the same size.

Desflur: Don't know what your deal is, but I have loaded car many times without putting left rear on the right side. Usually was too tired at the end of the night to do any more work.

they are easier to roll in/out of the hauler, push around the shop, manuever around the car when it's loaded, etc with 2 left rears. pay attention in the pits...lots of teams do it. period.

Lots of teams do it, including ours. Take away the stagger, and it makes it easier to load, and unload. Even more so for dirt late models, because they are so wide, and heavier. Just can not pick them up, and move them over like a sprint car.

No problem at all. Just saying you don't necessarily have to put 2 left rear tires on to get car in trailer. Yes taking stagger out makes them more maneuverable totally agree with you.

Nothing new. Karl Kinser made two round circles out of plywood and mounted them to hubs to use as tires
