    I don't get it, the hauler is just an s&s truck and trailer, a lot of these out there. Its not like its a custom every detail carefully designed batmobile like Bloomquist has.

      Heck, I always thought it would be fun if you had one of these big rigs to go to small, regional track, pay for pit admission and park there, but never unload, or even open the trailer doors. That would drive the gawkers nuts!

I think most of the seasoned racers on this board have some interesting stories about their early days of getting to the track.Instead of building that $100,000 shop, buying one more RY 45 for a spare or buying that $500,000 transporter how about helping the sport, not your ego, and back a couple young drivers and put those guys in a better car with a better engine so they can run every week and help the sport at the same time.Pay it forward... just some food for thought.
            Yeah, and instead of getting in the helicopter after the race, buy everybody in the stands a beer and stick around for a while. Slide down a muddy hill and dive into the crowd ! Nice hauler by the way.

                  I believe S&S makes the best race car haulers out there, fit and finish, and like you said, most are the same and just are different colors. Scott went to a luxury coach and had that masterpiece built, which I believe is over the top for dirt racing. If you own a pavement car or some sort of drag car, it would be a little more understanding. Anybody that has worked on these things know there are nights where you have to work in the mud, dirt, and dust pretty much all night long. Then we have the nights like EAMS where you're buried in mud.....awesome. I wouldn't want that headache of keeping that thing clean either. Dont get me wrong it's cool to look at and all that, it just seems a lil bit much for the purpose.
