Was that when you were helping Tim in Sarasota?

I saw one at an autocross, basically same details, that the license plate was FRECNDY. One of my biggest regrets is not taking a picture of it.


But if you need a picture, here's a pic of me on a coaster in Elitch Gardens in Denver.

the problem with these, is that chances are if you ever need to jack the car up this high, you'll need to remove a tire or two.

If it was 2 big ones that you can put in the center of the body that would be much better.

Kind of like the air compressed ones.

I have the same problem with four-post lifts. Seems to me that they would be extremely limiting as compared to a two-poster.

I could see this device being useful (as compared to conventional stands) for certain specific jobs, such as removing a transmission while the engine is still in the car. It will easily put the car several inches higher for a given jack height, and that clearance is useful when bench-pressing the tranny back into place.

For the vast majority of jobs, however, it looks like those are just far more work to use, with no obvious benefit over ramps or conventional jackstands.


Still, it's a gadget, and so I'm certain that a certain demographic will buy them.

because they made sure to film it in such a way that you can't actually read what it printed when annoucing the first ever print?

If you're like most people, you've often found yourself thinking that while, on the whole, you find the selection of food vending machines at your local railway station to be adequate, you can't help but wish that there was a vending machine which sold live crabs.

Today, I discovered that if you click the word "WireCAD" down in the lower-left corner of the WireCAD application, a message window pops up asking "Why are you clicking this?"

I loled.
