Just for purposes of discussion, a couple more cons to using a trailer on Drag Week - it can be tough sometimes finding a place to park you are “comfortable” with at the hotels, since often they are places you are not familiar with, and don’t always know how big their parking lots are, especially if a bunch of other Dragweekers show up at the same place with trailers too. Most people like to park their stuff within view of your room. Another consideration is maneuvering the checkpoints can be difficult with a trailer. Many times the checkpoints have small lots, or tight spaces, or are busy places of business. And often once word gets out Drag Week is coming through the locals show up to watch the action. All the fans being there is cool, but many times they park in what little room the checkpoints might have, and it can be hard to pull through, or back up, etc. The same can be true with maneuvering gas stations, or turning around on the inevitable wrong turn on the route.
