If you are asking about SoFla's (Alan's) car, it looks like it already has a rack installed:

It's an Omni rack and I did it to see if I could :D
As I have said, I'll let all know if it works, when I know.
Hopefully it will not be that much longer before this thing is on the ground and running... Gotta drive it to the paint shop some day!
