    Only problem is dumb drivers will get hurt under them. This would be accident waiting to happen. We are very careful when using these on race cars. But they are super convenient. I could jack my racecar right on this trailer and change brake pads.

    Do they think buyers of new Ferrari road cars are the type to change their own tires and brakes? Or is this just for looks bragging rights? I think I know the answer. I'll see myself out...

    My hipshot is someone's gonna make a self-contained kit to deploy the jacks and someone else is gonna hit that switch at speed to show sparks on their TicYouTokBookTube.

    Or someone with a weak garage floor/driveway is gonna shoot holes into it the first time they pump up. Then forget and try to drive off.

    I don't see any benefit to this but as a party trick.

    Lemme know when I can get the Mach 5's "Function A" jacks.

    Functions C & D would be perfect for enviro-protester issues.
