At the end of the year I think I'm going to buy a new trailer. The one I have works perfectly fine, but, I have realized that one of the reasons I don't track side stay too much is accommodations. I'd like to get better organized and create a trailer that I can sleep in as well as haul my car around. Less is more for me - so this thing will end up being very space efficient.
Plus, we all spend a lot of time at the track. The 20ft enclosed we bought and use really improved our track experience over exclusive use of open trailers. So, maybe this would be another step up for us.
20 ft aluminum trailer as the base
Reinforced roof at rear for small observation deck (maybe 8'x5')
Side ladder to get to same
Tie downs/d rings inside, around eight
Wired for 110V, four inside, two outside
LED lights for external brakes, turn, etc.
Roof vent
Fluorescent lights, two 4ft would work
Porch light
Loading lights
500W quartz lights on the side with the door, maybe two
Door oversized, maybe 48", and only one door to maximize wall space
How much would something like this cost? I've been shopping around but haven't found this configuration, although I've found some steel 20fters.
Other things that are going in are cabinets with drawers up front, a bench there, tire racks up high on side walls, and two fold down beds on the side walls as I've seen others have. Ditto an AC unit. Got Internet covered too. But, I didn't want these things figuring into the price since I can build them myself.
Any comments (other than "forget it buy a 50 ft sleeper") from those that have done something similar would be appreciated.
Thanks!
