Many racers tell me that they do not put logos/signage on the hauler because of the DOT claiming it would be a commercial vehicle and that it would increase the cost of insurance and registration and require a special license. Others have told me there are no logos on their hauler because it would draw attention that they are hauling a race car and could result in the vehicle being stolen.

On top of that, fines are being levied for carrying fuel in a non-DOT-approved container (the fuel cell!) regardless of size and gross vehicle weight rating. As for the IRS saying racing is a hobby or a business, there are some proper procedures you should follow so that you do not get into tax troubles. Get a good accountant who can save you a heap of headaches.
