Presently:
Bought this one from my engine builder/race buddy. It was his racer chaser. I bugged him for 14 years before he agreed to sell it. Currently approaching the quarter-million mile mark.

This was at the NMCA race at Indy last year.
I don't know anything about it beyond what you see in the photo. K

That hauler is Bruce Litton’s. Top Fuel driver and owner of Litton Trailer Sales right across from the entrance to Lucas Oil Raceway in Indy. Here it is with a cool 65 Nova on board.

I got my Haulmark from that location, back in 2001. Excellent to deal with. K

You know how when you are at the races and you see these enclosed trailers and they are all banged up? I vowed I would not be that guy. I was going to keep my trailer nice and straight, and in good shape overall. I was able to keep my vow until we stopped for fuel on the way home. Pulling out of the Shell station in Perry Michigan I drug the back of it coming out onto the roadway. I hadn't even made it home with my new trailer before I had to fix the back corner.
