Someone asked about a bike rack and I pulled up some old pictures I took. My machine work was kinda crude but it works great. (Tested with bike mounted at 100MPH at WCC 005.)

I fabricated two simple brackets that mount to the existing ski rack holes. Each bracket has a bike tight mounted on it.
The rear tires of my mountain bikes sit right on the rear deck spoiler. My road bike has a shorter wheel base so I use a few pieces of water pipe foam insulator, slit down the side, and place them on the tire and tie it with a bandana (which is what actually touches the trunk or spoiler). I usually leave one of the mounts on the car all the time. Here is how the bikes sit on the car. Attached image(s)
