1) do you have any other picture angles of the hitch?
2) can you slap a shifter-cart on that mini-trailer?

Those mini-trailers are cheap too (dunno if you bought yours or had it custom made...) But, Harbor Freight sells a kit that looks just like that that my dad used for his S2000's trailer. It worked great, but one question just because I"m sure everyone is wondering: Why won't you use the truck and the car trailer?
And I bet you could slap a shifter-cart on the mini-trailer as long as you (obviously) strapped it down enough.

Here's a pix of my other friend using the same hitch design but with different trailer and he had it on his car for 3 years, went to countless event with it and never had any problem. He previously use a tire tail to haul his tires on the same hitch for 1 year and decided to get a trailer instead. So he could bring more stuff to the event.

Here are some more pixs with different angles,I don't think it'll be a problem to mount a shifter cart on that trailer, it should be wide enough to mount a cart safely on the same trailer. Actually i've seen ppl using the same trailer to tow a shifter-cart to some auto-x event.

Old trailer setup:
My new trailer setup (repainted/resetup):
I have to redo the tire mounting setup in order to fit the 12" trailer rims and wider wheels I have, but it has worked flawlessly so far transporting my stock wheels. The vertical stands are made from galvanized tubing from Lowes. The red "thing" under the wheel is an all-weather foam pad used to keep the rim lips from crashing into one another.
I'd like to see some close-ups of how some of you other guys are securing your wheels, especially wider ones.
