You could probably consider my set up as state of the art.Circa 1975.But it works for me.
And one advantage is that at some tracks I can get a primo parking spot due to the smallness of my setup.I also can save a spot for a friend with an open trailer and suburban by side parking the gremlin till he gets there and then we both work off the back of our trailers,all without hogging an extra spot. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I forgot to add one of the drawbacks of leaving the car out overnight.It opens a door for any "creative" artisans.This one gets an "A" for creativity.

Ed by the way nice to see that drag racing isn't your only hobby, great pictures from Cecil Dragway. Quite funny, did a Gremlin do this to your Gremlin.

Quote:"Ed, this is exactly what I am looking to do. What size trailer do you have axels etc? Also, where is your water tank for your sink and where do you carry your bed?, in the back of your truck? I like the use of the space. Sure beats my open trailer. Thanks"
Robert,It's an 18" Cargo Mate trailer.It originally had barn doors.I built a ramp door from scratch in 2004.It has 3500# axles.The 8 gal water tank and pump is under the sink,with a diverter valve to pump water to a hose with a kitchen sink sprayer.That and a clothes washer pan with a drain and curtain is my shower setup. The bed is suspended by an E track with brackets to hold a 2X4 frame,folding plywood base and air matress and sleeping bag.I slso have an Etrack setup to move the brackets,frame and matress and sleeping bag to the front,over the hood of the car. I sleep up there when I get to a track and park outside of the gate.It's a bit tight with the moped in front of the car.Sometimes I take the moped and leave it outside,usuaaly when I'm not going to sleep right away. I can post more pics if you need any further info. All in all it works for me. You might want to see how I tie the car down in the trailer also.Just ask.

Claude,
I"m still trying to figure that out.Didn't see any foot prints though,or empty beer cans.
