I’m looking for a pit bike or scooter (but if a scooter it has to have a seat) that will fit in the frunk (or the rear hatch) of a 718 Cayman. Anyone know of something that definitely fits?

this is what i have been eyeing for a while now. would love to have a ninebot but not at 3x the price.

Note that many tracks I have been to no longer allow e-scooters due to liability/crashes that have occurred. They say it has to have a steering wheel and a seat, or at least a seat. At least one said you can't just bolt a seat on to an e-scooter either.

what tracks have banned them? i haven't run into one yet along the east coast.

the one i linked comes "factory" with a seat, bolt on or not. easy enough to make it permanent and slap a steering wheel over the handlebars if that is true.

I have not seen this enforced but Lime Rock's rules say:
====
We do not allow a non-registerable vehicle under 125cc. Vehicles such as scooters and skating systems will not be allowed to operate on the premises of Lime Rock Park, including but not limited to the Race Course or on access or paddock roads.

Bicycles are allowed in camping after 6:00 p.m. until dark. Guest Services will advise you when it’s time to put bikes away. Fans and participants may ride bicycles in the paddocks and on roadways. Bicycles are not allowed in the paddock at anytime during major event weekends or any time during an active track session. Lime Rock Park reserves the right to impound any bicycles if they are being ridden in an unsafe manner (as judged by Lime Rock Park personnel)

Road America requires a seat on all pit vehicles. I forget the wording but it has to be factory spec, not a mod. Or you can rent one of their carts for like $500+ 🤪. Many tracks now have pretty expensive pit vehicle registrations as well.

not that we want to push it, but LRP wasn’t enforcing scooters at the ClubRace this spring.

I have a Razor scooter that I bought off of Amazon and a 30 year old Cannondale mountain bike that stays on my race team's trailer. They require close to zero maintenance, don't need to be plugged in or refueled, and tracks are OK with them.

Something with electric or gas always seems like a hassle to me.

Sebring also doesn't allow anything that you aren't sitting on. Appreciate all the suggestions.

PTSFX

Yes, I should have been more specific in my request for a recommendation. I'm looking for compact, inexpensive and leg powered over long range and get there quickly. The longest thing I do is a track walk around Sebring, and that's at a very slow pace and I don't mind peddling 3.7 miles.

with those specifics added just look for a folding bike. they seem to start around $200. here is the cheapest one i found after a 10 second search that would appear to fit but don't quote me on it.

Frunk is only 27” wide so that one is too big.

nineball

if that is the size then you are not going to find a folding bike that will fit in it. google says this is the smallest one:

May 10, 2023 — Urban transportation specialist Tern today launched the BYB P10, the smallest folding bike it has ever produced. It achieves its compact size through a patented TriFold frame design incorporating two hinges. It measures only 33 x 80 x 50 cm (13.0" x 31.5" x 19.7").

Road America, Sebring, Mid Ohio are the ones I have been to recently that say no more scooters.
