Help with purchasing - Truck + Camper that can still tow

Hello,  I am looking at purchasing a truck + camper for use at the race track, but I will still also need to tow the car out there. I found a truck + camper locally, but I'm not sure on how much GVW...

Being a single rear wheel drive (SRW) truck, you will be very limited to a small truck camper to tow a heavy car hauler trailer.  You'll really need a dually for that chore.

    The trailer isn't super heavy (under 5k lbs fully loaded), but I am just worried that the camper is already a lot for the truck. 

    Was happy to see the bulletproof work, so was hoping people with more experience would tell me I'm worried about nothing, but I'd still rather hear the hard truth than find out by buying it .
