About The Hauler
the truck:
The base truck is a 2021 Freightliner Casscadia, a very popular American long Haul truck and comes with between 370-600 horsepower with a max torque of 2050lbft. Driver comfort is a massive deal with the Casscadia, and is designed with a floater cab, and many other comfort features for long hauls.
The trailer:
The trailer is made by Featherlite trailers and have been a trusted Hauler for NASCAR, Indycar, IMSA and the NHRA. The trailers are spacious with the bottom being open for crew lockers, spare parts, a suspension dyno, and many other resources the race team may need on a race weekend. Upto 2 cars can be stored on the top of the trailer at a time, enough for the primary and backup car incase of incident.

Trackhouse Racing and it'd founder
After a successful career as a sports car and NASCAR driver, Justin Marks, 41, made the decision to retire from full-time competition and devote his energies to the business of motorsports and entertainment.
He moved to Nashville in 2020 and created the Trackhouse Entertainment Group and its Trackhouse Racing division.
Timing his race team’s entry into NASCAR as the sport moved toward a new more economical model, Marks’ Trackhouse team began competition in 2021 as a single car race team with Mexican driver Daniel Suárez behind the wheel and international entertainment superstar Pitbull as a partner.
The team achieved success on and off the track in 2021 running competitively and reaching out to non-traditional NASCAR audiences.
In June of 2021 Marks shocked the racing world when Trackhouse announced the acquisition of Chip Ganassi Racing’s NASCAR assets, a move that secured two full-time NASCAR Cup Series entries and cleared the path for expansion.
In its first season as a multicar team in 2022 working out of its Concord, North Carolina race shop, Suárez and Ross Chastain won three races and both finished in the top-10 in the standings - both are career bests.
2021 Sonoma win for Daniel Suárez
Chastain’s “Hail Melon” move on the final lap at Martinsville (Va.) Speedway to earn his way into the final round of the NASCAR Playoffs went viral with hundreds of millions of viewers around the world.

Daniel Suarez:
Daniel Suárez, the only Spanish-speaking driver in the NASCAR Cup Series,, made racing history in 2022 as the first Mexican-born and just fifth foreign-born driver to take the checkers, driving the No. 99 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 for Trackhouse Racing.
The 32-year-old driver from Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, turned doubters into fans when he claimed this history-making victory at the Toyota Save Mart 350, at Sonoma Raceway. Daniel, no stranger to historic wins, was also the first international champion in the 2016 NASCAR Xfinity Series, as well as the 2017 and 2022 NASCAR All-Star Race Open Winner.
On February 25th at Atlanta Motor Speedway, Suárez made history again winning in a three-wide finish with a 0.003 second lead.
picture of the finish at this years atlanta race. If you havent seen the last lap it was one of the greatest in nascar history. The whole race was unparalleled and was a joy to watch. Suarez is the one closest to the camera.

Builders note:
This is one of my favorite builds I've done in awhile, and turned out exactly as I wanted. This was the first Tractor trailer I've made and I thoroughly enjoyed it, so be looking for a peterbilt 389, low boy trailer, a refrigerator trailer and the blank truck and trailer of this to be coming soon. For deciding what Hauler I wanted to do it was pretty easy to choose my favorite driver, and it definitely helps that trackhouse has some of the coolest looking haulers. The project took a little bit of time to do and fine tune but it was a great learning experience.
Keep looking to the stars

@Strucker thanks! I hope so! Trailer has a basic but fully detailed interior, and tried making it handle as well as I could. The truck was originally just made for this but now I'm using it for some other up coming stuff.
Just from the screenshots alone this looks really well made lol
@MobileBuilder21 thanks! Yea, but it is also a pretty niche thing so probably doesn't help lol
Excellent work, I don't think people realize how much detail was put into this thing.
im getting better though, im just here inspireing myself to do something
very nice! way better i can do, go look and see how i made a cab over ( its not very good )
@DatFiat126Guy19 no interest in making ground targets honestly. Plus I got so many projects I gotta finish and upload as it is. I got about 4 that are almost ready for upload, and another few in the build process as well as probably 20 that I wanna do at some point so.
@PapaKernels also, chevy bel air ground target when
@DatFiat126Guy19 hmm yea idk man. It's never done it for me so I didn't know how to help. Glad it's working now
@PapaKernels oh wait nvm it decided to work now for some reason... odd.
@PapaKernels i did! and plus, i wasn't attached to it at all.
@DatFiat126Guy19 hmm, did you raise the trailer legs?
@PapaKernels i know but, for some reason mine refuses to move even though i put the pitch way up
@DatFiat126Guy19 it's in the description, but Pitch and yaw are movements,
@PapaKernels also, what are the controls? the truck won't move for some reason.
@Kroixo thanks brother! Very proud of how it turned out, even if it kinda fell short of the reception I was hoping for
This is just amazing! Well done buddy!
@AluminiumFX thanks!
Nice work
@daniboi99 lmao, yea I noticed that as well.
@PapaKernels Also on the little blueprint thingie, the truck is so long it shows some of the engine interior!! Lol
@PapaKernels OK! IT is fine. :D
@daniboi99 well I made this on mobile, but had to use a computer to mash em up before I got my new phone. But honestly, this is about as part efficient as it could get. Not really much I can delete that would make it a drastic reduction in parts. Would still be around 1000 with all the sponsors and everything removed
