Nice...The extra height was a good idea. Did you get the four season pkg with dual payne windows and sealed underbelly?

Yes. I did. I forgot about those. I also got the larger furnace 30k btu I believe, 2nd ac, fuel station(which I want use, just wanted extra fuel for genset) 50 amp service, outside shower and.......

Do you know what the overall height is from ground to the top of your AC? That weight does not look bad. It will go up 2,000 or 3,000 lbs when you add bikes, tools, beer.....I had mine over 20,000 once fully loaded of course, when I needed to have full water tank but usually run around 19,000 give or take 500 lbs.

Do you have a sponsor Logo's that you will be promoting your racing?

[JCMINIS]

Not yet. I plan to measure it tomorrow...I hope my wife dosent want to carry that much stuff....hehe...

Yes...for my kids it will say....sponsored by DAD ..lol.......I have a few sponsors left, local ones. I raced professionally from 2000-2011 and the local ones who still help me out I give as much rolling billboard space as possible.

Tool box installed. I mounted it on a 2x10 frame to lift it up over the wheel well and the cover for the fuel station. I drilled some holes in the end to hold the awning rod and stabilizer jack tool. A little bit over kill for my race tools, but Im thinking of using the bottom drawer for grilling tools and outside type supplies.

Thanks ! I have some on the truck, but for the pic I was playing around with different psi's trying to level it up. At that point I realized my rear wheels were in a little dip in the yard voiding my testing.....Racing trip planned this weekend and will have it set right. 375 miles round trip should be a nice maiden voyage.

[1l243]

Should be a fun trip. You will have to let us know how it went.

What he said. I read some of these wieght police threads and just shake my head.

Loaded and ready to roll. Flush mount wheel chocks haven't come in yet so had to improvise with some 2x4's. Bikes will be facing forward once the wheel chocks are in.

Nice rig and set-up! We just ordered a Solera 24R and will be able to carry around ~500 lbs. of gear. Jealous that you can carry pretty much all you want! What a great way to spend time with your kids. Good luck!

I have a 30 wrs and thought it was long at 36'. You will turn today and the trailer tomorrow. Excellent trailers. I have had 3 and love them. Hope you have a lot of fun with your kids and the bikes. My kids are grown and now I have a grandson and a 2nd on the way. The W&P are great with kids and toys.

Awesome video!

So how did the truck handle the trailer? Still think you need a dually?

[JCMINIS]

I wasn't able to pass a scale, but my rough calculations were GCWR was in the 25000# neighborhood. Again "rough calculations" were me taking my 1st weight ticket and adding to it. I know the weight of bikes and tools. I also towed with a full fresh water tank (didn't know where I could fill near track). I towed at 65-70 and had 1 moment where I thought a dually would have been better. Going down a 7% grade with sharp turns....was going 55 on this section. I feel confident I can tow it any where with this truck, and will.....until I find a dually that I like.

Cool video. I always thought Motocross was way too much work. You seem pretty good at it. Amazing how you can keep your head so still while racing!
