Brad, professional drag racer from Columbia City, IN, needed a trailer mounted weather station pole for his pit station. The available alternatives were a telescoping post or pvc from the hardware store with a mop squeegee or paint roller mounted on top making for an unattractive and unstable solution. Brad chose 80/20 aluminum tube with permanently mounted anodized aluminum stanchions which are weather resistant and attractive. The aluminum tube allows for the weather gauge to be 12-15 feet in the air and helps Brad measure temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure to determine his ideal race setup.
