And there's no reason in the world why most local racers couldn't still have a cheap open trailer pulled by their daily driver pickup truck without sacrificing a single competitive element. I see these half million dollar rigs around here and they never haul the car more than about 20 or 30 miles to the track and back. i've got no problem with these folks spending money on this stuff, but when these same people start complaining about the cost of tires, shocks, etc. and that they can hardly afford to race weekly, I have to question their judgement in how they spend (waste) their money.
