ESCANABA, MICHIGAN – Oct. 31, 2014 – Race Ramps by Brute Technologies (Booth #21215) will introduce four new products at the 2014 SEMA Show that were created based on a combination of the past year’s most in-demand, custom designed projects. Known for their line of 100-plus ramp and display products, Race Ramps also provides a tailored approach to applications which require a custom design. Looking over the past year’s design requests, Race Ramps introduces new products that offer a solution to today’s most popular applications.
A 20-time SEMA Global Media Award Winner, Brute Technologies’ patented 100% solid core construction of the ramps provides strength, durability and versatility – all while being lightweight for easy transport and maneuverability. All ramps are finished with a durable coating which prevents slipping, sliding or scooting on any surface. The ramps will not scratch or leave marks on floors.
Car Lift Ramp (RR-CLR-4)

Shop Ramps (RR-SPR)
MSRP $295.00
The Shop Ramp is the new universal, multi-purpose, multi-application ramp. Several custom design projects over the past year indicated a growing trend and yielded the concept to create a ramp that would be versatile for varying uses. Shop Ramps can be used as: trailer ramps (a notch is cut out for this application), alignment ramp extenders, 4-post lift ramp extenders, 2-post lift ramps and jack assist ramps.
Dimensions of the ramp are 52″H x 14″W x 4″H. The ramp set weighs 24 lbs and supports up to 6,000 lbs. Shop Ramps have a 7-degree low angle of approach, making them an asset for low profile cars. The ramp’s heavy duty construction allows for regular use within shop environments, while also providing a professional look to any service department.
Banked Track Display Ramp (RR-BTDR-10)
MSRP $1,895.00
Making its initial debut at Corvettes at Carlisle this year, the Banked Track Display Ramp was introduced at the GM Exhibit. The first of its kind, this ramp display draws a crowd as they visualize the “speed and agility of a vehicle in motion” while it’s showcased at a 10-degree angle.
Dimensions of the ramp are 220″H x 16″W x 18″H with the high side at 18″H and the low side at 3″H; accommodates wheelbases from 90″ to 125″ and supports up to 6,000 lbs. The Banked Track Display Ramp is comprised of four interlocking pieces per side, making a total of eight pieces for the set and weighs a total of 155 lbs. As it is for professional use only, the Banked Track Display Ramp is ideal for trade shows, events and car dealerships.
In developing this product, Brute Technologies President Richard Heinz recalled, “Over the years, I’ve watched personnel in other booths build different car displays. Typically, they use 2×4’s and plywood and over a span of many hours, I continue to watch them attempt to build their desired look. These observations got my mind going in creating the next ramp concept which will not only help others achieve an outstanding display, but to also save them time in providing a product that makes set-up easy.”
For vehicles with a stiff suspension, an Optional Extender for the Banked Track Display Ramp is available. (RR-BTDR-EX; MSRP $200.00)
Wheel Chocks (Set of 4 RR-WC;Set of 2 RR-WC-2;Single Chock RR-WC-1)

The Wheel Chock can be used on all types of floors, is resistant to oils and most chemicals, will not deteriorate or rot and fits all tire sizes.
