Anyone know where I can find a small 12-14 ft. Open channel trailer? Just need to be able to carry a small ~1500 lb car (9 ft wheel base/14 ft total length). Trying to find something as light weight as possible, so single axle and open channel would be ideal. Any leads are appreciated. Thanks!

Single axle trailer carrying a car would be a bad idea

It's more of just a gokart type of vehicle...

Why don't you just call it a day and get yourself a remote control car [Big Grin] .
Seriously, what have you got yourself into now?

I'm guessing it's for a side by side?

There's this place in Tracy that sells all sorts of trailers.

Greg, I got one of those already [Big Grin] I got myself a ProChallenge car. Just took delivery last Friday. 2/3 scale NASCAR sprint cup car, fully adjustable tube-frame chassis, Kawasaki 1100cc motor, sequential-shift trans, Winters quick change rear, etc. All that packed up into ~1400 lbs of insane fun. Just need to get it dialed in for road race duty as it was previously raced in the SE circle track scene.

Willit, thanks for the link. I'll look into what they have. Wheel base is just around 9'x5' with a weight of under 1500 lbs,so I think I can get away with a nice 12'x6' trailer.

I still wouldn't suggest a single axle. They get way too squirly on the freeway.

Damn, I want to see pictures of this thing, understand if you don't want to post them up though. Sounds like this thing is going to tear up the track soon.
