Trinity Grand Stand

Trinity’s new “Grand Stand” is a folding car stand designed to hold the all R/C vehicles from 1/16th cars and trucks like the Trinity NEXT to the biggest 1/7th scale monster trucks. New patented applied for design allows the “Grand Stand” to be folded down flat for easy storage in your pit box. Constructed with a light weight molded composite and screw assembled the "Grand Stand" is easy to transport, super strong and the last car stand you will ever buy.

Interesting to say the least, it looks like it would be good. Nice and adjustable.

I understand that function comes before form, so I will wait till I can see one in peson to pass a final judgement, but as it is right now, it looks kinda strange.

I agree with that. I'm not quite seeing it. Perhaps more pictures with a vehicle on it and in its folded form may help. And I can't tell if tools are required to fold and unfold it. And will it break or lose its functionality if I drop it.... I do give them credit for being innovative though.

Looks better than Pro-Lines upside down dog bowl P.O.S.

I still think that it's better to just make one... A chunck 4x4 works well after all... So do boxes, high density foam... etc... Maybe even on one of our bowls for the dogs :)

That's what I'm wondering too. If it folds w/o removing screws...or even if you only have to pull a few, then this could be very, very cool. It looks kinda crazy...and I'm wondering about the size. As others have mentioned, a pic or two with a vehicle on it would clear up a lot of confusion.

An effecient car stand needs the ability to turn. JMO.. mine is made from a plastic lazy susan with a chunk of foam glued to it. I can turn my 360 degrees, fits in my pit bag and cost about $2...

i use the box from my power supply with some rubber shelf liner on it... and it doubles as a box for my power supply....

LOL....I like the idea that you found teo uses for the box for you power supply.
1. work stand 2. box for the power supply :D :D



ON topic though, I am usually excited to see new products for their potential...but this is seriously just one of those things that I call a "Trinity" thing :confused: . lol....and that smiley sums up what that means and what I think when I look at that pic.


All the same, would love to see it in use up close and personal....if I could figure it out I bet it would be useful!
