Someone asked about a bike rack and I pulled up some old pictures I took. My machine work was kinda crude but it works great. (Tested with bike mounted at 100MPH at WCC 005.)

I don't remember what model Yakima I used. It was origianlly used on my 911 to carry skis. I don't have a single picture of the bike mounted on the rack. Someone at the WCC 2005 took some pictures of it. I can't remember who. My original concern was that the rear mount would warp or otherwise damage the trunk lid but it didn't at all. I'm stuck in Louisville Kentucky for over a month for ground school but if anyone is still interested I'll take more pics when I finally get home.

Cheers, Elliot
