An update...

I received my OTC 1532 earlier this week. It's a 43 lb aluminum 
racing jack. Nicely made, pretty beefy, lifts the A6 with no fuss, 
no muss, holds it up in the air as long as I want, and lets it 
down slowly.

Here's where I bought it...seems to be the best pricing 
currently:

I was a bit surprised at how heavy it felt...it's about the same 
weight as a tire/wheel combo, and it's about half the weight of my 
Sears 3 ton floor jack.

The question now is...do I retire the Sears jack (even though it's 
working fine), or do I save the OTC for track autocross use. I'm 
leaning towards the latter. :)
