Tool boxes and Car Haulers

[hans1128dog]

Going out to the racers there. What do you use to carry all of your race supplies and cars back and forth from the track or bashing place? Right now I have a real basic fabric bag that I carry the truck in and than a fishing tackle box for all the small stuff. The bag is starting to rip apart and such. Just looking to see if you had an all-in-one carry-all system.

I don't race or have any meets close to where I live but if I did, I would use a garden wagon.

I have used many thing a 4 level box with nylon bag. carried it all. ended up with a hockey cargo bag , extended handle on wheels. 6 large area to store gear . had a 2 car hauler to zip tie on top.

I didn't think of a hockey bag. right now the handle area is what is starting to delaminate on the inside. where did you get hockey bag?

I never raced, but I used to take my cars to a hobby shop that had a track just to bash around. I always wanted one of these tool boxes to haul my cars and such in but never bought one.

Jconcepts shortcourse backpack for biking or a quick car and parts. 3 or more cars and tons of spares, a dewalt or stanley hard plastic toolbox on wheels would be my go to.

I love the dewalt hard case. My company has a couple of them. Very nice boxes Milwaukee finally came out with something similar.

Yeah, those Milwaukee ones are nice too.

This is what I have had for a long time. But in red. I'm a little jealous they make them in blue now

My uncle got me this suitcase for my car when I go to my hobby shop to do some laps. Had it for 5 years. Still have it. Carry my car, batteries, charger, radio.

I know some guys that use Buggy hauler bags. Designed to carry your 1/8 buggy/truggy to the track plus room for tools/supplies.

That's pretty slick.

Been looking around for some tool solutions. I have a ton of tools and stuff. But when I’m racing or crawling I need some tools, parts and then there is the whole battery charging thing. One solution is to have two sets of tools. One for the race track and one for the house. What I have is a bunch of old tool boxes and plastic totes plied around my shop. When I go out I just pack up and go. Problem is I can easily forget my batteries or transmitter or the damn car for that matter. ( I’m old) .
So I think I need a way to pack all my race stuff and parts for the race cars in one unit I can move from shop to van and it’s all there.
Looking at the Chraftsman Versastack system or the Dewalt Tstack. I read the Dewalt was flimsy. But I will be super light duty. So maybe it’s ok. I like the Dewalt top box the best.

I got this Crescent backpack tool holder it holds all of the tools needed out in the field when running my RC rides.

I ended up with the Dewalt Tstack system. I just like the way it’s set up. The bottom is for big stuff like the lap top and parts bins for each race car. Plus scale and thermometer and a tote tray for some misc stuff like go pro. In the middle I have all my battery chargers and battery’s and cables. On top is all the hand tools and solder stuff. I still want to get a two drawer box that will pretty much stay with the top part. I want my battery screw driver and all my alignment tools in that. I don’t need all of this stuff at the track. But this will also be in the shop. And I can do a quick pack up and have everything even if I don’t need it. I also have my table, chair, pit mat and 12 volt battery so I can charge from that if there is no power. And an extension cord.
I have been putting off buying the pop up tent but will get one after next month.

This is the whole pit lay out in the van except for the easy-up. When I get to the track the van is open to sit in and relax and I have a whole work and charging station for three cars.
Took two trips to load plus the cars.

 

[Pat_ranch]

Clear totes for tools & parts (different tote for each type of rig), and a ford f'n ranger to haul it all.

This is the set up at the track for practice. The table is still great inside the van
