This rack is the bomb. I have prototype #0001A. (And #0001B) ;-)

Holds my Ivanpah very well. I am sure it will hold my incoming ice buggy nicely.

Big Mike's review is spot on. Not much more to add.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I am actually trying to not take any orders directly. Trying to sell my stuff through the dealers. Thanks to Todd and his time for helping me test the prototype. I still owe you prototype #0001C .. haha. It was alot easier to build Mike's rack since I've seen it in person.

His skills had progressed further than a Libre could take him so he had to move on.

I don,t believe if pay for overly expensive equipment, that you skill will progress. I would think skill comes from learning how to use your equipment, not from trying to buy skill based on bling.

I think the buyer and seller need to be the ones to determine a fair price.

I also need a buggy rack. I would love one that will haul the Apexx and the Hero without any disassembly. I've spoken with Van about this and just haven't had a chance to work up a design. Good things should come from this. Van is meeting a market need that has been vacant till now.

Can you name those benifits that no other buggy has? I should have clarified "taken to the cleaners" as I had a customer that was willing to pay around a $1000 for the buggy Donald got for $300.
