Doesn't clear even with multiple 2*4's. My friend with one tried to get it on the flatbed and it was even close with the long overhang. Also learned that it is nearly impossible to get my CS on a flatbed also after my tire fiasco. (blowout of the R compound corsa's on the freeway)

Duh! I should have known that as it was one of the reasons I didn't buy a CGT.
