And my stuff is licensed in my state which like most states has no weight limit on motor homes. I think New York has something on drivers license's over some limit. Last year when I was wearing out the phones and emails to Florida, the notice to NHRA was to notify the pros that there was a 65' limit. When I finally got the right guy he said there were not going to chase down race car tow rigs to measure them. However if you were stopped for something else, the you might get a look. If you use a pickup truck then I would suggest you have enough tag to cover what you weigh. It's not expensive and gives you a chance to argue.
