There are two other practical reasons why towing is a better idea. 1) You have something else to drive while the car sits at the event site and 2) If you break something, it doesn't get in the way of you getting back home on time.

Plus, of course, this all assumes that the RX-8 will outlast a tow vehicle, which it almost definitely won't. Having a tow vehicle available opens up future possibilities that will be impossible without a tow vehicle (a 7 or Miata in DM or a Cobra)

SVT or Factory Five?
