(14 yrs.). Graduated to an open trailer and when I started racing Stock I stayed in a TENT for 3 years. Got an enclosed in 2003 and made it into a comfy LQ ( car stayed outside under a car cover (tarped over in rainy weather) till I pulled the plug in 2010. So yeah, cry me a river about accomodations.

I didn't see anyone crying about accommodations.

Not sure what this thread has to do with whether or not you like to sleep in tents, pickup beds, on roof racks or whatever.

Don uses a crew cab and a tag trailer and stays in motels.
I believe he was commenting on the physical conditions of the pits where NHRA runs its national and divisional events.

I use a modest Class C motorhome, but in my way of thinking, for what NHRA charges for a nat'l, you shouldn't have to steam clean the the carpets of your m/h after one of their events.
