Questions?? Need pit bag suggestions....

After coming back to racing after about an 8 year layoff, i don't have a pit bag any longer, and have outgrown the gymbag thing i have going on now.

I race 1/10th 2wd and SCT, and im not so worried about the cars fitting in it, but want something to hold everything else, including possibly a pit board and be on wheels.

Having a hard time finding much on searching google/forums/etc. just seems to not be talked about that much.

Anyone have suggestions? Links would be good also, if you have them handy.

Thanks!

i recently bought the above linked racers edge hauler and am happy with it.

the pro-tek 1/8 hauler is also nice.

Does it have to be a bag? A couple of my fellow racers have these, and LOVE them:

Our local HS had the Racer's Edge and the Venom both in stock, same price. I went with the Venom simply because I felt the top was laid out a bit better. The tool loops are mounted on a sloped surface and you can always stash stuff underneath too

Both bags looked great and were essentially the same. I am loving the Venom so far.

+1 on the protek hauler. Pricy but imho well worth it. I have had mine for a year now with no problems. My friend bought the racers edge one but its not as good of quality (thinner material, boxes not as sturdy, etc) and he stopped using it after 4 months since the whole thing "racks" and its hard to open the drawers.

Wingtote 1/8 pro buggy roller, it's the best roller pit bag on the market. 'Nuff said

I've got a Racers Edge bag that is probably 10 years old. I picked it up dirt cheap, but it has served me well.

If you need a LOT of room, the Duratrax hauler bag is the only way to go:

I have never seen a hauler bag this big! I race mostly 1/8th scale and need a lot of room and the DTX bag gives me just that! I have had it for this whole season and it is holding up great!

Love my wingtote. I was using a Fatmax which was more durable, but the wingtote is a little easier to manuever and use in tight pit areas.
