I am looking for the same thing and thought of bringing this up. The best way to haul bikes is with the racks that slide into a small hitch like lots of cars in Europe have.

I have the rally track one....its pretty nice and bolts up really easy, can be removed in a few minutes under the car.

I have it for a bike rack setup now, works well...once I get a beater car I will be selling my whole setup because the evo will no longer be my only car....just not sure when that will be quite yet

I was thinking of hauling a small trailer to the track and need a hitch as well.
Would not be much weight, wheels, jack, canopy, cooler and 2 chairs.

Can anyone shed some light on the Lancer hitch and if it would work?

i've heard the normal lancer hitch will not work, due the crash beams being different. has anyone contacted rally track? there used to be a thread about this a long time ago.

Nice, I just emailed them to see for 100% sure that it fits the USDM evo 8.

Hopefully I'll finally be able to have a hitch receiver for this car. Sick of hauling the bike around in the backseat.

I'm in need of a trailer hitch as well. If any member who posted here would like to sell theirs, I would be very interested.

Also if I find anything that will work, I'll post up.
