KartAddict Trailer Engineering - The KartAddict trailer is
a 14(L)x6(W)x7(H) Wells Cargo TW Sport unit. I added the second
axle for load bearing and stability reasons. This trailer is truly
a beautiful unit to tow. With standard electric brakes, one hardly
knows it's there. Course the 440 lb/ft. of torque the V10 offers
is no slacker, either.
We
originally riveted the eTrack to the existing OEM-installed panelling
inside the trailer, but this proved to be less than reliable. We
had no incidents, but the last thing I wanted to worry about in
300 mile round trips is the thought of my kart sailing across the
trailer.
In
response to this issue, we undertook to weld the eTrack to the internal
trailer skeletal system, and provide reinforced structural integrity
to the trailer itself.
What
is not shown in the pictures are the RLV vertical kart stands we
use to secure the karts to the wall of the trailer. I'll add these
pictures shortly.
Here
are some pictures:

I
know the welds look crappy, but they're fine...trust me!

We
made some triangulated bracketry to mount the electric tire
changer.
It's not quite done yet.
