Cart to carry our mobile track

We alternate track styles at our monthly meets so along with our mobile road course known as the DragonFire Raceway we use a 4 lane, scale 1/4 mile (21.8ft) straight track called Poker Run Raceway. The total length with a stop box is right at 24ft so it's built in three pieces and mounted on three 8ftx18in banquet tables with folding legs. The tables are fairly hefty because I wanted the track to be as stable as I could get it. So instead of making several trips to grab the sections out of the trailer I thought a single cart would make moving and storing it a bit easier. So, one beat up warehouse cart and leftover 2x4s later, here it is. We took the track to set up for an community event tomorrow and the cart worked as planned. I got pretty lucky though because I forgot to check the total height with the trailer door height... it clears by a hair.

Whew..

Sweet. Nice build, and yeah, you got real lucky on the height.
Now get a deck of those mini playing cards, and use the Ace, Two, Three, Four as lane markers.
