I decided to just order one of these folding carts as I think it will be more durable than a smaller luggage carrier. I am just going to go to Wal-Mart and get some flip top bins.

I think I can get my stuff inside the track in one trip switching to this method

I have been using the stanley fat max for a few months now...It is ideal for me.I actually got it for 40 bucks at home depot.A friend of mine saw one with the drawer popped out of the tracks so they sold it to me as damagedlove it.

Was at Wal-Mart earlier

I found this footlocker for 16$...rolling wheels and all:




And got 6 of these 7 quart containers that fill up the inside perfectly for 1.66$ each:



Should fit nicely on this hand cart I got from Amazon for about 30$




Then I can just stack my battery box and tool box and hopefully make 1 trip.

im going to the shed right now to get a bigger tool box to put all the crap im starting to get into. the toolbox i have now is too small....

im gonna go to our local military surplus store and look in their storage dept for rolling bins. it just has to fit in my trunk trunk trunk

i also put my ezup across the back seat of my sedan, a nissan sentra. fits tight door-to-door

and my light was 12.49 for the unit and 1.49 for the 70watt equivalent flourescent bulb at Harbor Freight. The bulbs were on sale and i thought i should try and save pegasus some money on electricity....

You must be from Australia? I'm from Canada and we can't use our beavers as they don't have pouches.

[QUOTE=y2kgtp;6480458]Here is another Stanley....I think this one is only 20$ It just does not fold out like the other one.




I almost got this stanley one but it kinda looked weird and weak for a stanley, I wasnt sure if it would work.

I am using a large rubbermaid tub which works but still doesnt fit my Slash right across, it has to sit down on one side. I found when I went out to find something, there are lots of tubs and carts that are too small that look like they would fit, I need 22" in length.

I like this footlocker one, do you know how wide it is?

I just a giant plastic container to full with my charger, battery, and parts trays. I do make a second trip for my transmitter(m8 is too big for the box) and the slash and/or other cars i'm racing that day.

Blue and silver Ford F-150. Put the tailgate down, smoke the tires in reverse into the pit area, and slam on the brakes! Same way we did the trash dunp when I was a kid.

Thumbs up

I finally got tired of breaking my back and carrying all of my crap on my shoulder. I picked up this nice 1/8 hauler bag from tower hobbies. This is the venom race transporter case and I'm really happy with it. I'm pretty damn sure that the same manufacturer makes the Hauler bags of every different company out there, they just have different materials. The materials on this bag are really nice and I don't even mind the loud color scheme. I could not beat the price at $109 shipped to my door from tower hobbies. I picked up the radio case a while back and it fits my DX2S perfectly.





When I first put it all together, I was pretty bummed that my Plano plastic organizer boxes did not fit into any of the smaller drawers. I ended up just leaving out 1 of the drawers and placing the plano boxes in it's place. Works perfectly!!



In summary, I highly reccomend that everyone stop being cheap and pick up a nice hauler bag. It helped me organize all my crap really well. All of my track day stuff is there, even my SC truck in the Dialed bag.
