If your rig is over 10,000 pounds fuel must be transported in sealed, secured 5 or 8 gal containers without hazmat. There's also a limit on how much. I can't remember exactly but it was well below 55gal.

I was told motor sports and horse transporters were gonna be high on DOT's radar this year.
Buy a 55 Gallon drum to keep in your shop and then carry as many 5 gallon jugs as you need for the racing trip you're going on. I usually carry four with me.
