Default trailer ramps?

who has an easy solution for loading 996 cup cars? Mine is scraping the trailer ramp, and I am running out of long pieces of lumber...any ramp ideas or suggestions?

Yes, Race Ramps. Get a set with 5 degrees of incline, not 5.5. The 5.5 standard sets will work, but you may just rub the front spoiler.

They will also make custom ones. What i do is I have a ramp that is knotched for the door to sit on then the ramp is about 6 feet long then I made flat ramps 2 inches tall to butt up to the sloped ramps so the lip of the car will clear the ramp. Some people use 2 x 6 wood to bump the car up but I like the race ramp material.

Just a heads up. Reverse Logic (www.ReverseLogic.us) is big in Race Ramps and the owner Fred, has designed some of the products they offer. He'd be a good source of information and is a good guy. No affiliation here - just FYI.

Thanks guys! Just e-mailed with Fred at Reverse Logic and he is coming up with a plan for my trailer and ramp angle...Very helpful and nice to deal with! I will talk to him on Monday to see what he comes up with.

I'll let you know when I get mine and give you the details...Fred seems like he has a pair of ramps that will work.
