South Sport Track Trailer

I just got a hitch for my vert cuz I'm tired of the limited space I have to carry things and also having to drive up on the race tires. I've looked all over and found this trailer from Rob Robinettes old site but cannot locate the trailer anymore.

Anyone know where to get these still or anything similiar? The manufacturer is listed as South Sport Trailer and their track trailer.

Or has anyone seen just the tire rack without wheels and box that mounts like a bike rack?

I know harbor freight offers a 'kit' that is similiar but is larger and not as nice

Here is a link to the site with the South Sport trailer:

Another good, inexpensive tire/tool trailer is a small 40x48 utility trailer from Harbor Freight Tools, at about $160. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=42708

It's big enough to haul four tires and a large cooler.

You can get a trailer hitch for your car from U-haul pretty inexpensively.

I don't know if you would be interested in something like THIS or not but I looked at them a while ago. The interior is about 24" (Maybe a little less) so if your tires are smaller than that they can stand up inside and you still have a decent amount of space for extra stuff.

The Tire Tail is the rack that just attaches to the hitch. I can't find a website though.

Show off. I'll take one of those. I remember seeing that in a thread sometime ago and the build up. Very nice.

I was aware of the harbor freight trailer, but I'm looking for something purpose built.

I have used one of these trailers. It pulled very well and I really liked it. It was just too damn expensive though!
