depends on stands, the ones with the cup type things are generally universal, but some use bobbins, and single sided need a special type of paddock stand.

Ask one of the guys or gals that went to Cadwell park, I seem to remember from the pictures I've seen that 2 Wheelie Bins were used as a Padock stand. Laughing
