Looking for an awesome canopy
 
I started looking for one that I can pack along for track days and such. The choices are endless, yet info is short on dimensions when packed.

Anyone love their canopy enough to recommend it? I'm thinking this one might be nice because of the awnings but it looks kinda flimsy. :iono:

Yep hard pass unless you like hauling 4 cinder blocks around in the car.
Or f you have a friend that can do that for you.

Other than that, any descent name branded one.

I just bring empty sand bags with me, fill them up at the track to use as weights, then dump them out when you leave. KISS.

That's nice but we're not in the same tax bracket.

You're still welcome to hang out under whatever I buy when I bring it to the summer kickoff. :D

I have a 10'x10' octagonal shaped pole aluminum frame King Canopy. Had it 10 years. It is amazing!!!! they still sell them. I have replaced the top from a decade of use. It is strong!

Have you used this anywhere with heavy winds? I want to get it but I go camping once a year in a rather windy area so that would be a big selling point for me.
