With car, trailer and truck and or motorhome how do you guys do it?

Baby steps. Started class racing in the late '90s with a 4-cyl FWD car, because it's what I could afford (and even then, only with a lot of help). Had a lot more help over the years. Terry Knott gave me a ride in his Stocker, and he and Jeff Ross helped me in various ways to initially purchase my Volare. Since then, I've sunk a ton of money into it, but those racing expenses and upgrades to the operation have been covered through winnings. I won my open trailer in a shootout race when I was a kid (Thanks to Steve Sweitzer who sponsored the shootout). My truck was paid off by world championship winnings. By not having a giant toterhome and trailer combo, I figure I'm a few hundred thousand ahead of the game.
One foot in front of the other... 15 years ago, I never would've dreamed of where I am today. Hopefully I will be able to continue upgrading a little bit at a time. Maybe I'll have a bigger truck and a 2-car open trailer before I retire.
