Yep Ed, in various person-to-person emails several of us agreed that inclusion of autos with the carriers would be important to the success of the project. I would think that the manufacturer could offer the AC either with or without autos, so that those of us who have a bunch already would have the option. Bob Werre voiced his concern about the possibility of the car being top heavy, and using plastic instead of diecast vehicles would help keep things light upstairs. As I recall, that SHS flat is a pretty heavy beast empty, so if the upper rack were made of plastic, that would help keep the CG lower as well.

Metal diecast cars would be too heavy (my opinion, anyway), but plastic cars would be very nice indeed. Just another idea for someone else to work on. Cheers...Ed L.
