Im a regular dry van driver. Looks pretty intense having to team drive the full 11 hours each day. Can't be late. Can't screw up. Probably not a lot of rest. I had my days of running hard but even my peak was 550mi-600mi per day for a few days then ease off to 480-550/day and pickup/delivery days have always been even lower miles. Im totally gassed out now. Driving is a mental game more than anything, especially when long and repetitive. Especially for NASCAR, im sure you've really really gotta love it almost to the point of all you wanna do is drive and be at the track no matter what. Not anyone can just do that, let alone trucking itself. I do enjoy the sport though. More into motocross. But love being out on the road when i see the Nascar haulers go by. Probably stressful as heck, but gotta be a cool experience to be with the top of the line, elite trucking teams out there. Would love to see more vlogs on the road from you.
Thank you for all the positive comments... And it's true that you definitely have to have a special love for this stuff. Driving is a tiny part of our whole job.
If you search the channel "how to become a NASCAR hauler driver," I have a video on this, but the short answer is start handing in resumes to teams and try to get on as a backup driver, where you can learn the job and prove yourself
It sounds like you work a lot of hours or at least away from home a lot. Hope you are paid well to be gone so much at the track getting fuel and cooking.
The 02 should have a lot of speed this week. I spotted for Will there 2 weeks ago on his Trans Am deal he was quick. Good luck this weekend! 🤙🏽
He was fast in practice
Good luck this weekend. I've always wondered how someone gets into that position, informative video!
I get the question so often... It's a bit overdue

I saw you parked on an exit ramp on the WV Turnpike yesterday
It was nap time 😆
I would've stopped but I thought you were still with YMS
@MotorRacingNGravy you get time to nap? I thought they run the snot out of you guys lol
Great video. Do race teams offer benefits such as insurance?
Some don't offer any, some offer full paid, top notch insurance for an entire family. Just depends on the team
What's it pay if you don't mind me asking? Ballpark....
Im interested. I drove a semi truck for over a year and i want to try to be a nascar hauler driver.

I do have a question. Do you know Bama who drove for Rackely who now drives for SHR (24) in Xfinity
I do
@MotorRacingNGravy that's my guy. He's says Rackley may start a 2nd team and I should go to work for them....
@@jasonirvine4926Bama is a solid dude. Hate he's not in the truck series anymore.

I make plenty enough for me to be happy. Put it that way
