msmith,
Don't you love the people that are going to stay out of CA because CA will not allow someone the individual staying out of CA does not know break the law. Well, Florida did it to with the NHRA sportsman racers. A good majority of the sportsmen guys were using Toterhomes with trailers. Why? So they did not have to run commercial tags and then they could run over length and over weight since they were not required to hit the scales. The state of Florida got fed up with these tax dodgers ruining the highways in to and out of Gainesville. The state warned the racers that they would be checking weights, lengths and registrations but the idiots showed up anyway. You should have heard the howls when the tickets were written and rigs red tagged. The second year of the sting the racers were warned again and a good number of them still rolled in and got ticketed, etc. Now if you see a racer in a Toterhome and trailer running down the road there will be no decals on the rig. Usually there is just a small "Not For Hire" in black lettering on the side of the tractor. This is the new way to convince the states that this is in fact just a private RV running down the road. Not a commercial racing operation disguised as a sportsman racer/vacationer.

They are in for a surprise this year as the truck cops will have plain clothes folks at the Gator Nationals observing which units are racing and which are spectators. The NHRA has again been told the law will be enforced if they are found in violation. Want to take a guess how many will thumb their nose at the law again?
