    Race Van

    Looking for a little info somebody may have.

    I the few races I attended over the last three years I would see an cargo van that had been converted for racing service. The van had a false wall built a few feet behind the drivers seat which created an area for sleeping. This left enough room behind the false wall for a bike, etc.

    Does anybody know who owns that van? I am hoping they can give some input on a similar conversion. Any help is appreciated.

    Color? I'm sure you're not referring to Falt or Andrews.

    Haner has one. Partition and all. If you don't have his number, give him a shout through facetubes.

    It was a white van. Very stealth. It might be Haners.

    I am willing to bet it is John Byus' van. It is a Chevy/GMC long wheel base and it has custom wheels.
    Please contact me if you are interested in it because he is selling the van currently.

    No, no, no, Sean he is looking for a RACE van, not a RAPE van.

    Pretty sure you're talking about Brady Ipock's van. Its a white Sprinter dually. Set up to carry two bikes, or one bike and a scooter, plus room for generator, all gear, etc. In front of the garage area it has a pull out bench seat/bed, tv, roof mounted a/c unit and then the drivers/passengers seats. If I'm not mistaken he bought if from a guy that used it to race MX around the country.

    The van I saw was for sure not a Sprinter. I am pretty sure it was an E150, 250 or 350. I love Brady's van but I have to have one that can be driven daily as well.

    Haner definitely has a van like the one you described.
