for a new towing operation.What would you choose?Dually and a Living Quarters TrailerToter Home and a 5th Wheel TrailerToter Home and a Stacker Trailer

Number 4 choice......go to Vegas......lol

Having driven all of them I’d opt for Toter and short stacker. Heavy requires brakes and the Toter with three axle stacker has them. They all go like he!! But don’t whoa well!

$300K would only be good for a down payment on a nice Toter and stacker

It would depend on what your racing....1 car...2 cars.....

300 aint gonna buy a toter and a stacker...unless they are used....

One friend I raced with had a great rig....
One dragster....Freightliner or Pete (can't recall) gooseneck style with a living quarters and a single car trailer...

That was a great setup for One person and one car.....could have hauled 2 cars with a dragster lift...

I would go with the dually and living quarters trailer. In fact I am remodeling a 44 foot gooseneck trailer but the living quarters is not going to be typical. Will have a shower, bed but not a complete bathroom or kitchen. I am just building it so I can take a shower and sleep comfortably and stay cool at track. I am keeping the shop space in trailer large as possible.

I would have to ask her "Where the h*ll have you been hiding that much money and why haven't you invested it in something to help us out during our retirements?" Take care. Tom Worthington

LIKE!

I have a short toter with long gooseneck trailer, and it’s awesome. Tows like a dream, as fast as I want to go, gets pretty good mileage, and I can haul two door cars and a dragster.

But I’d kill for a real mattress bed. Gimme that full toter with a stacker.

$300 ?

My choice would be a 747, I'd be on the first flight to Costa Rica.

I would go toter nwith stacker. The sponsor gave you money for nice rig.I would buy a used nice piece and give the sponsor a show for his money spent. Buy the nicest looking piece you can w/o dipping into pocket. He may just pop more cash into yourhand.

Side question would be is it the extra good kind of money? If so you can buy nicer because no hold back for later cost.

For me I think I would roll with the dually and living quarters trailer. You could buy the complete operation(no monthly payments) and still have some $$$$ left over for traveling.

IMO not giving sponsors what they expect is the quickest way to lose them. JMO and what I have observed over the years. There is a reason guys like Force, Bernstein, and other have decade long sponsorships.

Being a tractor trailer driver I'd pick the toter and fifth wheel any day

The way the Future of Racing looks right now I could not see putting any more cash into it than you can afford to throw away and I am not financing ANYTHING.

I am currently remodeling a trailer and simply not putting any more money into it than I can afford to throw away. I also have the added issue than many others share is that I am older and do not know how much longer I will be racing. So from now on everything I do racing related is rather low cost and paid cash in full or I do not need it.

Pickup truck with open trailer and friend with a motorhome. lol

Having had a living quarter trailer id say go with a Totor and stacker.
Pros to living quarter trailer is unhook and go anywhere you want in the truck
Cons are no room in them. Making the bed is a pain and water tanks are to small.
I bought my 07 28’ Hallmark with M2 chassis used with 78,000 miles and a new 32’ Bravo and have less than 150k in both. Id never go back to a living quarter trailer

Who the hells sponsor giving um 300k…
