AJ Foyt towed his own cars to Indianapolis from Texas behind a Ford Galaxie too but I bet they still had a truck carrying all the spares.
Trouble is that is all part of the Supercars image, massive B-doubles with sponsorship down the side criss-crossing the country. Many race competitors in various categories now use transporters so Supercars has to have the biggest and best to keep their status, I realise that.
Unfortunately having the biggest and best also means you spend more than everyone else.
