Re: New stuff . . .
It' s TN Trailer's KZ Cargo (that's the series) 8.5' by 16'. I wanted something I could bring in the shop to work on and the old 8 by 20 was too long with the ramp down. The trailer itself was 4100.00 including a spare wheel/tire and I have about another grand in the interior with the lighting, carpeting, workbench, hardware, quick disconnects, service entrance, shore power connection etc.

I haul it with either the Pitbike (35' motor home) or my Suburban depending on the event. It tows very nicely (much better than the old United) yet I actually have more room inside because of the layout and extra width.

Well geeeze Conq, I never got a chance to spend some meaningful track time with you, so I couldn't collect on your offer to re-floor the old trailer

I just wanted something that was decent to work out of and house the Vulcan and my tractor over the winter.

Re: New stuff . . .
you may need a roof AC unit and a side mounted re-tract-awning to complete the experience

Nice set-up. I need a bigger truck for a bigger trailer. My whimpy 5.9l 1500 dodge screams in second up steeper hills with my 6x16 and 2 bikes.

The awning is on order already. I will probably hold off on the roof air right now, as the tow vehicle already has that in spades. My 5.3 Suburban pulls this thing uphill just fine with the damn Vulcan (800 lbs), the RC and all the fixins . . .

Re: New stuff . . .
yeah, my dodge has very liitle real power for its size compared to the GM. Sorry to say. It also drinks gas like its connected to a pipline in Arabia while towing. I'm going to equip my liittle enclosed with AC and an awning cause I dont have a camper.

Did you do all the customization?

My ex-crew chief and I did it all in about 3 days. I just purchased some cable protector (you know the plastic speed bump looking stuff you run cables under) for the paddock, so my 8/4 SO cable doesn't kill someone.
