a full yellow DHL tractor would’ve been cool. Flow into Red Bull logo. Have it ombré the yellows.

I think they were at the Mini O's. As far as professional racing, I don't know.

I think one of them is for the amateur team, and the other one is a Yamaha support trailer for the amateur nationals.

Gotcha. I thought they were sending three to SX.

I like when teams have the time to do a walk through.  So much thought is put in to their set ups.

It would be cool to have an MTV Cribs type of spot on the broadcast where each week a team gives a tour of their rig and maybe get the riders involved who stay in motorhomes, too.

That Clubmx rig looks cool but is set up all wrong. It will lead to poor handling and driver fatigue. If they keep the trailer long enough, frame/suspension damage. Anyone know the driver? He should dial it in. Is he a racer/mechanic turned truck driver?

Explain? It looks like every team semi?

Team Tedder rolling in with the classic Pete and angry duck hood ornament is so much cooler to me than all the newer rigs.

I didn’t realise how many teams are sponsored by Progressive insurance.

The tractor looks like it doesn't have the proper rake(the leveler could have been lowered to make the trailer sit level).  The trailer looks like it was designed for a higher fifth wheel height and is sitting too low. The driver can call or even google the spec for the tractor. It's usually a measurement taken from the rear of the frame by the axles to the ground. Very easy for the driver to do. Once he gets the measurement, call the trailer manufacture for the spec on the trailer ride height. Sometimes it's just checking the max height of the trailer in the back. If the trailer is right, then there is nothing you can do. The tractor was built with the wrong fifth wheel height for that trailer. That is pretty common because teams usually purchase them separately. If the trailer ride height is incorrect, you have to pull it over a pit at a truck stop to adjust the levelers. If you're doing that you might as well put in an override system. A lot of the race trailers already have this but the new owners(if bought used) might not know. If there is wiring going from the solenoids to the front of the trailer to a plug or switch, that is it. What it does is over rides the front axle airbag leveler to fully extend the airbags then deflate the rear airbags so they contract. This will lift the rear axle off the ground on some suspensions but at least take the weight off of the rear axle. Two benefits from this. First, the trailer will now pivot off of the front axle allowing you to get in tighter parking and corners but you really have to watch the overhang. Second, it doesn't scrub the sidewalls. The axles are twenty feet apart. When you turn, both axles scrub weakening the sidewalls. 

It's just like setting the sag on your bike. There is a sweet spot. The truck won't wonder as much in the lane. Won't need steering corrections as much. Especially when you get in those grooves. The trailer won't feel like it's leaning too much in sweepers.  A driver might think his truck is fine until he drives a good one. Making it handle right is what saves your ass when that idiot in a car does something stupid in front of you.

For the record, I got my com license in 1980. Started driving exclusively for race teams in '96. I've been around the block(country) a few times.

Thanks I was genuinely curious. I have thought about as my retirement gig, getting my cdl and driving for a team. Got a 12 year before I retire from the sheriffs office.
