The Volvo V90 AWD is supposed to be rated for 3,500lbs over here. Apparently you can get some lightweight car trailers that are ~700lbs. So you could maybe squeak a 2,800lb car on there but it'd be close.
Realistically you're probably looking at something at least the size of a 4Runner rated for 5,000lb, but then you need to do a lot of racing to make up for your daily now being boring as hell to drive.
Or you get another fun car to daily but now you're up to 3 vehicles + a trailer and all but 1 of those things is just sitting 95% of the time.

start with karting at greg moore, this is a much cheaper price point to enter to learn actual wheel to wheel.
there's so much more to it than showing up, being able to drive at the limit in a sprint, while hitting brake points and not missing apexes and dealing with tire deg, while watching for traffic and setting up passes.
you will never learn this shit at a hpde
sim is the other place, but it doesnt completely fill the fatigue, physical stress, nerves when the heat is on.
Great weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park at the June DE with PCA UCR with 137 cars on track.
Weather and track conditions were favourable. I kept my tire pressure relatively consistent throughout the weekend.
Got black flagged on Saturday morning after a 180 degree spin, facing traffic. Took Turn 9 with too much speed and didn't brake to shift the weight up front, rear end snapped, hit the dirt and grass and was probably 1 metre away from the wall. I got really lucky.
Second incident happened today taking Turn 8. Trail braked into the turn and added maintenance throttle to maintain balance then all of the sudden went sideways 90 degree. Cars behind me also went sideways. Turns out someone in front of us dumped coolant on the track. Not fun.
Despite the brown pants moments, it was a great weekend. Looking forward to August DE.
Edit: Forgot to mention we did the entire track walk last night. Amazing how you see and feel the track from a different perspective. Track walks expose all the bumps, hills, curves, and crests that you can't see while you're driving and helps you use as much of the track as possible to hit your lines better and also where NOT to drive in certain situations (i.e. if you run out of track, or it's raining.) If you guys ever get to walk a track, I highly encourage it. Benefit for us was the IMSA race was held at CTMP last week so all the scrape marks from their turns and racing lines were visible.

Tons of fun, unique tracks, unique experience. Get a lot of skill doing it on a surface unlike any other. Weather can suck sometime, or it can be amazing bluebird skies.
Small town lodgings so be prepared for crappy motels.
You probably want to do the lapping on ice/ice attack sessions not auto-x on ice, I know how you feel about auto-x. The ice lapping/ice attack is amazing, you basically get a track session on ice. Hitting 100-120kph on ice kinda scary sometimes haha.
Not that much chance of damaging your car unless you go absolutely stupid.
An experience you won't get elsewhere in BC unless you go to Peace River lol.
Let me know if you have specific questions.
