You know, I was going to try to argue that it wasn't that bad but I can't. It really is.
Anyway, I'm trackin' and I'm happy.

I have finished my roof rack tire mount. It looks like it will work well. Here are a couple of poor quality shots. I used the Porsche Tequipment roof rack and bolted my own aluminum extrusion frame to it. I am going to add an additional strap around all the tires to make it redundant.

. it's actually a giant tcr carbon. of my bikes (pinarello prince, litespeed siena and the giant) my favorite is the giant. doesn't have the cache of the pinarello or litespeed but the giant outperforms either, hands down.

This is the answer... $500-700... I don't have mine yet, we got a tire retailer PCA member who hauls all our sets to the track and puts them on (as long as we buy from him), but I am getting this trailer next month to go to tracks further away.
this trailer is made by South Sport in Florida... I'm getting mine used.
Have fun at the track, but remember to put a condom on your car, I have the same color and the chips show as much as on black cars (damn you artic silver owners).

i did this on my old boxster. when it was time to trade in for my 996 i just bought new bumperettes and swapped them out. minimal expense and i reused the mounts on the 996
