looks nice but huge, heavy, and more than i need
I'm sure I've mentioned this to you before, but if you buy the Irvan-Smith cart in kit form, you can customize the overall length, i.e.: shorten it, so that it comfortably fits 1 full set of of tires (2 fronts, 2 rears) on each shelf. Then take it a step further by adding those Snap-loc singles. 1 pair for each shelf to run a ratchet strap across the top of the tires (long-wise), and a few more so you can easily strap the entire cart to the e-track on your trailer wall.

The kit requires welding. I didn't learn that in school...

LOL

If you really want one, we'll get it fab'd for you! Just order it and have it drop shipped to TC Design. Then you can get Mooty to sherpa it to LS or Thunderhill - you know, cause you'll be at one of those tracks soon enough.

On a more serious note, I'm sure there is a shop in your neck of the woods that does fab. Call the man and write a check!

initially i was thinking i would get the custom kit...but as i think about it more.... 3 sets of track wheels (one on car), plus set of tires, plus the tray on the rack and my breaker bar, torque wrench....maybe the big one is what i NEED

Wish Porsche had welded my coolant pipes instead of going space age.
