Another crazy question from yours truly...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
I like the idea of putting those air/hydraulic jacks on the four corners of the car and plugging in the air line (or is it hydraulic pump?) and having the car lift entirely off the ground. My car is probably ~2000lbs now and I don't want to use the hand jack anymore. I can carry auxilliary equipment in my trailer (21' enclosed). Who makes this stuff? How much $? How heavy? Are they safe? Hmmm....just wonderin.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Bill P. |

I *think* if you check the rules.. they are not allowed in PCA TT or autoX.
They are pretty heavy. All the Carrera cup cars and GT3 (R/RS/RSR) come stock with them. Plus you have to carry nitrogen bottles and the wand setup.. plumb it all... I'll get you a name of the place that sell all the equipment.. you check the rules real quick. B |
