Let me get this straight.

Is this some sort of ego thing as it does not make very good financial sense to travel this way?

Please tell me if I'm wrong here..

If you havn't noticed racers in stock and super stock with pick up trucks and open trailers or ramp trucks then that pretty much tells me you dont go to the races. As far as drivers/teams with toterhomes and stackers, that doesnt mean they have any kind of advantage over racers with smaller operations. If they want to travel that way, why shouldnt they.
