Why would any race team buy a trailer that is know to be illegal ?
This same problem has been going on for years, you figure by now they would all meat the law to the inch 
its probably not the trailer length. more so the tractor length.
No.
There are OAL length laws and trailer length laws.
No limits on tractor size alone.

I am a little rusty on the laws but as a former OTR driver and truck owner I think I remember a total length law here in Florida and other states?

There is in FL, unless it changed in the last few years. They used to leave the measure tape out by the scales. I know of a few drivers that got ticketed about 5 years ago at the I-95 scales north of Jax.
Fl Turnpike is an exception. There you'll see single 57's, double 45's, double 48's, double 53's and Frito Lay has a set of double 57 footers running!
