As a racer I think it's a bad idea. Most of the joints we race at pit space is at a premium as it is. When there's a big deal show like WoO it's even worse and the elite travelers with their monstrous rigs take up all the good spots leaving us support classes that attend the track weekly relegated to parking in the boonies (BFE). Few of us are impressed with the rigs that cost more than our house or our divorce or our trip to Las Vegas. Long live open trailers. Years ago I had a deal with a few tracks where I put a sign on our open trailer saying "follow me to ------ Speedway" and I got in the pits for free. 'Course that's when pit fees were only a couple of bucks, literally.

I'm not suggesting it would be a good idea for the average dirt late model race, which would probably be a one night show. However, for a big show, like the Dream or the World 100 which is a 3 day event and one of the crown jewels, I think it's an idea with merit.

Each state sets size limits on non interstate highways. California has a hard-on about 53 footers on certain state highways. 53's have to have their axles slid to a certain position in relation to the steer axle or they are illegal...Member of the Luxemburg Speedway Hall of Fame
