I am from Florida and my rig is 68 ft long nose to tail. I have not had any problems in the SE. I don't stop at the scales or agriculture checkpoints either. They won't bother you in a motor home

Rick,
$20.00 for a yearlong blanket permit. We have had one every year since we started racing in Florida. Now that we live in Texas we still get one every year, even if we have no current plans to go to Florida (just because plans change). In the past it has taken up to 3 weeks to get the permit through the mail. This year I had the permit in hand 4 days after I submitted the application. It's a December/off season thing for us.

Bill

A few years ago Fla Dot stopped and ticketed several sprint car teams for over length rigs. Reports are of heavy fines. Twenty bucks is cheap. The overall length in Fla is 65 feet.

Cool Re: Fla. overlength permit

Just curious; If you planned on going racing to a lot of states,would you have to get a permit for each state you planned on entering or would states recognize permits from other states.It could get expensive real fast just for permits if they didn't.

Cool Re: Fla. overlength permit

I blew passed the Agriculture check point last year and got pulled over within 3 miles. The guy gave me a little hassle, something about not being able to read, and a quick update on what could happen to me, and let me go. I don't tow with a motorhome, just my pick up and enclosed trailer. They musta been bored that night.....So now I just swing in and tell 'em I'm only hauling a car.
