It should be for nearly 40 large. At those numbers you should take after the worlds best trailers such as Gold Rush, T&E, Motorsports and GMR.




Its bad enough you have your hands in other peoples pockets but why do you show an interest of what Ed is spending on a trailer. Run along.

Dang...stop saying it that way and it won't seem as bad...

Some shares and how the RV trailer industry is a step ahead of race trailers. Take this as nothing more than ideas for any future builds.

• LED inside lights that have a 3 positon switch. ON, OFF, and motion sensing. Very nice to have this at the curb door in addition to other lights.
• Roof gutters with an exit spouts on all 4 corners. Man this is the ultimate solution to black streak and water run off control and a pretty easy add.
• Already mentioned 10 pages back is the electric tongue jack with a real usable lighting and memory functions so raising and lowering is one press of a button.

Carry on!

All good ideas Paul.

Today's photos show the interior just about done with the exception of the dragster hoist and a few wall mounted accessories...

Needs a 22 ft. electric Girrard awning with wind sensor. When you are in the lanes awning goes in when the wind gets a little nasty. Would be a nice upgrade.

Tie down straps that High? I understand the Nose dolly. We put ours down low at the top of the bottom carpet. Was wondering the idea behind having it that high? also, are those drawers above the two center base cabinets?

Yes and the tie down strap hangers are being installed at 72", 6" higher than their typical install height for uniformity with the nose dolly hanger.

The best built/strongest pop-up awnings are built by this company, they cost less than a comparable EZ up too.......

I have this one, I can literally hang from the center of it without damaging it.
