Default Race car trailer ramp question

While we're waiting this morning to see Michaels last F1 race I thought I'd ask the sage advise of those on this board.

With one last event before I putting the car away for the winter and start my various projects I'm wondering where I can get some "ramp extensions" for my enclosed trailer ramp. The ones that came with the trailer are about 2 feet long and just barely work. This winter I'll be lowering the car and need to find a solution (and no I don't want to use 2x10's).

Ideally, I'm looking for ones that will be 4 to 5 feet long, made out of aluminum that will fold back onto the ramp door. I'll also need taller ramp pads to decrease the ramp angle.

Thanks for your help.

Try here. www.pitproducts.com I have not used them, but they seem to have lots of nice items for a trailer.

These are, without a doubt, the best around for a really low car. I use them for my 1 1/4" clearance car that is so low I have to use the front jack to clear the beavertail - but the ramps let it roll to that point. Not cheap, but they do the job.

They have a couple of models:
