    Wow this stinks we are talking a ton of money and he will miss the race..

    Truck, trailer taken from parking lot of team's Morrow, Georgia hotel


    Team Xtreme confirmed Friday that its No. 44 entry for this weekend's race at Atlanta Motor Speedway was stolen in the morning hours outside the team's hotel.

    Travis Kvapil, scheduled to drive the team's Chevrolet this weekend at the 1.54-mile track, offered details through his Twitter account, saying that the car was inside a trailer attached to a black Ford dually truck, parked overnight at a Morrow, Georgia, hotel.

    By Thursday, the team's hauler was already at the Atlanta track, but the primary car was brought separately from the organization's Huntersville, N.C., shop.

    Heck, I know how much money I have sitting in my garage from a dirt track car. Could never imagine that much money just being taken. You'd think it'd be easy to find.

    He wasn't going to win, it sucks for him but he is probably money ahead. I don't get the start and park teams.
