Message	the drive's pitch seems fairly constant. To do you any good, the ramp would have to have a lesser pitch than the drive and therefore, on this drive, when you got to the end of the ramp, you would be faced (nosed?) with returning to the drive's basic pitch, only further up the drive. The problem is the you have only x horizontal distance to rise y feet. With the (fairly) constant pitch of the existing drive, the existing pitch is really the least you can have. Only making the overall run longer, given the elevation you need to get to, will solve the problem. Good luck! (find a Z'er in that locale to test?) Linn Motors
