I just spoke to one of the dirt racers involved in this stop. Seems it was an overlength problem without a permit, but the officer also told them you can't pull a trailer with a motor home and not be a commercial motor vehicle. This racer's motor home was in his personal name. The fine is over $7000 just for the overlength. The racer is sending me all the information to file a protest with Florida. I will probably send them a copy of the exemption. Naturally the first thing asked is "Is someone paying you to race?" More as it developes.
