Towing with my Audi

Peter Raymond tows his Miata on a dual axle open wheel trailer 
with a 91 200q 20v turbo sedan.  AFAIK, the Miata is 2300.  
The 20v has more power than the 10v, but I suspect the limiting 
factor is not so much power(IE, one ton Toyotas).  

I've not set mine up for towing, but I was fully intending on 
towing the Rabbit on a dolly(2000# all said).  I think the 
problem is getting a hitch.  Could be wrong, but I know 
Raymond went from Denver/Boulder to Seattle for the tour a 
couple of years back - some hills on that trip;).
