It could be that they are trying to get racers to come to the "Republic of Florida" and leave (store) their rigs there and run consecutive weekends, and then make the return trip home. That would limit the road exposure of their outfits to the dreaded Florida DMV and weights and measures group that recently fined a guy with a 70' rig $7000.00, because he didn't have the proper credentials.The DMV said that since the racer could potentially win money in his racing venture that the rig should be registered as a commercial DOT entity. The racer did not have a CDL because he was driving a Toterhome w/a stacker trailer "normally" not requiring that certification.
Sportsman Racing in the "Republic of Florida" may be a thing of the past.
