Still stay in touch with some guys that do the Sunoco deal. There use to be 6 teams that made up the crews and each had their own support trailer that they pulled. It's now down to 4 team's and a dedicated team of 2 that pulls the support trailers to each event and when there's a split weekend where cup is separate from Xfinity or truck they hire a 3rd party to haul a 3rd trailer. The long time trucking company that Sunoco has used has also been sold but they need to support Nascar events until the end of the season.
They asked my old boss if he'd be interested in hauling a trailer and he declined.
Sunoco is in its last year of the contract so it will be interesting what happens. VP already does IMSA which nascar owns. They have retail stores which Sunoco does not so gut tells my it will be VP or possibly Shell next year.
