That's fine, and you're absolutely entitled to that. It's America, we have that freedom (for now?).

I also don't doubt that "common folks" have motorhomes.

We're not financially conscious racers though. We've got cars that were specifically built to compete in a certain class. We travels hundreds of miles from home, to spend 3-4 days at a track to compete in one race for that class we built a car for. We pay $200 for an entry, to maybe win $1500 and some contingency if we're lucky enough to go that far.

It's a lot more financially conscious to leave a bracket car parked in a trailer all year at Maple Grove, enter the Money Trail for $75/race, and run for the $2000 payout. What fun would that be though?
