  • Other support trailer functions

• 3-19-2012 Broadcast trailers

  During the NASCAR season, Featherlite provides broadcast trailers to each of the networks that broadcast the races. And we’ve also built broadcast trailers for other clients as well. Often, for the trailers used at NASCAR races, the bottom half of the trailer will be used for the director and producer’s offices while the top part is used for storage. Depending on the client’s needs, a full broadcast studio suite can be custom designed into the trailer’s floorplan. Other popular options may include:

  • Control room
  • Voice booth
  • Conference area
  • Multiple desks
  • Edit suites
  • Lounge
  • Kitchen
  • Restroom
  • Slideouts for more space
  • And more!

  In addition to providing trailers for NASCAR’s TV partners, Featherlite manufactures race car haulers that haul the cars of many NASCAR teams, in addition to vending trailers and hospitality trailers. So, next time you’re watching a NASCAR race, look beyond the team’s transporters, because Featherlites are being used elsewhere at races too!

• 2-21-2012 100th Race Transporter

  With the start of the NASCAR season kicking off this weekend in Daytona, we thought we’d share a photo from the Featherlite archives. It’s of the 100th race car hauler Featherlite built back in 1995 for A.J. Foyt. Several proud Featherlite employees posed for the photo that day.
