Question 996 Cup Cars and Race Ramps for Trailer Loading

I searched both here in the Cup Car forum as well as the Racing forum and could not find what I thought I had seen about this subject, so my apologies in advance.....

I am curious if anyone knows whether there is a "standard" solution from Race Ramps to use with a normal enclosed trailer like a Haulmark 24-footer. Am I simply better off using their "trailer calculator" application to determine proper sizing? I guess I'm just being a bit lazy as I'll have to move my trailer around to get the measurements specified. Maybe someone can chime in on the car measurement part?

Appreciate any info or experiences folks may have using Race Ramps to facilitate loading a 996 Cup into an enclosed trailer. Thanks!

Just finished sorting all this out...My advice? call Fred Gwinn at Reverse Logic and let him do the math and get you set up with a pair of custom Race Ramps.

Just talked to Fred and I think we're all good. Need to get the beavertail door thickness measurement and we'll be off to the races. Fred is a very nice gentleman and very eager to help out. Thanks for the reference Brant!
