Nice.

Looks like a V-nose.

Mike · 12-10-2015, 06:21 PM

4' extended V nose with a slant top

I'd imagine that plus the Z is pushing the towing capacity of the Cayenne?

I'll have about 1000 lbs to spare once all loaded. 3200 trailer, 3000 Z and about 500 in tires and gear, 6700. Cayenne is rated for 7700.

How much is the trailer rated for?

Mike · 12-22-2015, 05:16 PM

10000. have 5200# axles. Although when I went to take delivery at factory, they had the smaller axles on it and had to take it back and swap them out. Glad I caught that it only had 5 lug wheels and not 6 before leaving.

Nice setup!

BuckeyeZ · 12-22-2015, 09:27 PM

Nice trailer. I had a track buddy that used to bring his car to the track in a very similar set-up. Even though I didn't have a trailer, I loved using his....shade, protection from the wind, rain......every tool I ever needed....

Latest mod:
Just put this on friday at the track between sessions. Gives a noticeably firmer pedal. Not a huge change, but noticeable. Highly recommend it.

Thanks for the heads up!

HKYStormFront · 06-05-2016, 08:22 PM

Dustin got one of those for his 350 and yeah, I could feel a difference after. Just makes the brake pedal feel more "solid" overall.

Mike · 08-16-2018, 06:45 PM

ready to sell. Getting out of the track game. 17k if interested, and a great enclosed trailer for 5 more is available, but only with sale. going to eventually put it on bring a trailer if noone is interested, but posting here first

It's been a long time Mike. Sorry to see you getting out of it.

You influenced a lot of people, including me.

So what are your plans now?

These two things do not compute.
