Tracking Trailer?

Anybody have info or experience with this product?... www.campingtrek.com
Looks like you could easily change a 5th wheel or trailer into a toy box.

I saw one recently trailering a large quad behind a 5th wheel.

I would be worried about those little wheels going 60/70 mph down the interstate.

Seems like a good idea for the occational/recreational use. I wouldn't ever use it for something commercial.
As long as the bearings are capable of the RPM it shouldn't be a problem.
Look at roller coaster wheels. Those things go nearly as fast at times and the wheels are only about 5" in diameter.

Is it an "extra" trailer, or an extension of your existing trailer?

One pic shows a license plate, the other pics don't. If it is a separate trailer, you won't be able to tow this in most states east of the Mississippi River.

Good luck either way.
