NASCAR HAULERS LEAVING DOVER - AND IT'S QUITE THE SHOW
Спорт
I've never been to Dover Motor Speedway, much less watched the Haulers leave. It's quite a show. The trucks come down the backstretch and make a right turn up the banking and an immediate left while transitioning to a gravel surface. Its tight, has an elevation change, leans the tractor and trailer two directions and causes a bunch of wheel spin if the driver isn't 105% perfect.
BTW - Denny's hauler was still open in the garage by the time the rest left. Sorry.

Whether you watch NASCAR or not (and I don’t) you gotta admit, this is an awesome spectacle
Every one of them is so CLEAN...
These guys are the unsung heroes of NASCAR. Great respect. Thanks for posting this.

Do you know what a hero is? Those drivers are just doing their jobs, just like the other thousands of drivers do everyday. Military, police, emt's,doctors and other people that are in the business of safety, and making our lives a little better each day...these are heroes.
Thanks, to whomever caught these " Beautiful" rigs. All of them, are beautiful.

I used to drive a mobile TV truck and did some of the Craftsman series truck races and some Bush races. I have never been to Dover, but Bristol was a kick, driveing partially around the track was fun, but a very steep track for a full size semi with a spread axle like all of the race car drivers. As a woman who drove a truck, there are plenty of scenarios that will separate the Men from the Boys… or in my case the Woman from the little girl. 😂 squeezing into tight places and for me backing into places most truckers would never make it… all in a day work.

Those 23XI haulers are SHARP
Holy twisted frame and broken driveline Mr weaver! Lol. Good job as always sir.
I have to say, watching these trucks make that transition has been entertaining. Nice job!
Man, what a funky setup! Reminds me of some of the places I’ve delivered-designed for straight trucks or no trucks! The real show though was the woman waving for the drivers to blow the horn and her hollering after. She was drinking the good stuff.😉

All the petes looked super sweet!! Especially Stewart haas.
Looks tight to me when they turn left to exit the trailer comes close to rail on the left side of the exit very good professional driver s my hats off to them I drove for almost 30 years take care.
Might it be a temporary exit? I noticed the golf carts and civilian vehicles going straight while the transporters turned left. As others have mentioned, the gate on the left side almost left its mark on a few trailers (and one driver was like, "Gear! Gear! Accelerate! WTF?!"). It's been a minute since I've been to Dover (my "home" track), but I remember they exited on the East side, near the start/finish line. In any event, excellent video, and thanks for posting! The transporters look better than they did back in the heyday (and they didn't look too shabby then💖👍🏼 )!

Beyond this tight left turn - the route puts the trucks straight out onto the highway. A right turn like the cars and golf carts is a tight maze through a huge parking lot full of cars and not designed for large vehicles.
In Vegas, they have the Truckers parade. They line up leaving Southpoint Hotel, the Vegas Strip is shutdown for them, they parade their way through heading to the Vegas Speedway. Pretty sweet.
What a show!! Beautiful! Thank you Chris.
Dam they need to do something with that exit! But the haulers are sweet!
Wow they give these guys no room to maneuver at all...good drivers!

Seems like an awful place to have gravel.
Some people watch supercars cruise down Hollywood Blvd at 5 mph, I watch this.

It takes a skilled driver. To drive those rigs
If there’s one thing I learned about driving semi trucks over the years, a lot of places, space, gravel or bad parking lot are not designed with trucks in mind. They keep spinning on that gravel while turning out.
Some beautiful setups there.
Thank you for the video!! God Bless
Besides, Stewart/Haas “Smoak” had the best looking hoods 😂😂😂
I used to work the south tunnel at tx motor speedway i loved it especially the good guys car show every single car went thru that gate theres truly some beautiful cars in this world.
Awesome video!! Thanks ❤
Great footage this week
Great video man! Hell yeah!
With the amount of money that place makes, they can't pave that section of road so these spotless rigs don't get all dusty as they exit? At least water it down slightly to keep the dust down.

Hauler drives are the true hero’s of nascar. They haul the cars/equipment, help unload everything, cook for the team, help with the gas cans, and so much more. They’re definitely the backbone of these nascar teams. Was Cirkul at the race? They was at the Dega race a couple of Sunday, giving out the Cirkul water bottles.
I guarantee in at least one of these trucks, there is Life is a Highway playing
That was my dream job as a kid going to race tracks and seeing the haulers blow by you on the highway after the event on their way back to their base or on to the next event.
They need to get ALL the camper’s out of the Race track as well. ASAP.
