Did anyone watch the video of his hauler being taken? The guy seemed to know right where to go and what to take...talk about gone in 60 seconds...didn't even take that guy that long after he walked over to the hauler.

Was it a repo or stollen?

I don't think I've ever seen a cup ride with a tow rig like that. Not that it's junk, but I've seen local street stocks with more.

From something I read, the car was not in their regular hauler.

That's what makes me wonder. Was a plain dually truck and box trailer. I didn't know if the repo man got the hauler or if that's common practice among start and park teams to take cheap rigs. I've never seen it, even with the lowest budget teams.

The main hauler was in Atlanta at the track. The car was being finished at the shop, then transported to the track with the trailer and dually for Friday inspection at the track.

The car has been recovered, expect for a few spare parts missing.

The car was recovered, the truck, trailer, extra motor and a bunch of tools were in the trailer...why is everyone so sure it was being repoed?

Nah, I didn't mean to say that I thought it was repoed. I was just trying to figure out why a cup team was hauling with a low buck rig.

Actually I think it's pretty cool that they are hauling with a low buck rig...reminds me of the good old days...actually someone on here said they had a big rig also...

Read all articles idiots. They took main hauler to Atlanta early due to weather

Calm down...I think everyone realizes that it was NOT a repossession...I think some people just jumped to a conclusion because it's a low buck team...I think it would be cool if their main rig was a small enclosed.  A throw back to the good ol days...
