Their stuff is pricey, but it looks pretty nice. Lots of interesting ramp-related bits and pieces on that site for other uses too.

Those are very nice! But $300 for a set of those, verus $30 of wood and 5 hours of labour, I rather stick with mine.

Yeah. I've been living with some big rhino ramps and laying down some peices of 1x8 then 2x8 in front of them to step into it without hitting the spoilers so far. I've barely got enough time to get my car projects done (and usually late at that), so I just haven't had the time to tackle building ramps. We'll see which happens first: me getting free time to build some nice wood ones, or me getting too frustrated with my Rhino Ramp setup first and ordering those race ramps

My garage floor is really rough and sticky (they etched a groovy surface in the concrete if you know what I mean) but the rhino ramps still slip sometimes as I'm rolling into them off of the wood.

I still remember when we would get pissed off when we bought steel ramps for 30.00. This forum is starting to make me feel O L D . . .

YamahaR6, Nice vacuum, I would say nice Z however it looks just like mine

How long does it take you to build a ramp?
