Personally when I've done nationals I've not wanted to travel miles only to become a spectator after practice has finished due to me stuffing the car into the track markers!

The trouble is, as most people are doing that, it means not much business for the shops. I know of one shop who in order to support a national properly stocked up on a lot of extra parts and he's still carrying a lot of them as no one needed them. Repeat that experience everywhere and would you want to spend the weekend chasing a few sales?

What we don't know is would everyone stop carrying their own spares if they knew they could buy replacements instantly (obviously apart from people running Tamiyas! )
