HScott Motorsports lost two race cars and all their track equipment after their team hauler carrying their cars and gear caught fire on I-20 in Longview, Texas while en route to Texas Motor Speedway for Sunday's AAA Texas 500 on Thursday.

The hauler was carrying two Sprint Cup cars for driver Michael Annett along with all of the team's equipment for the race. Neither the driver of the transporter or his passenger were injured. The hauler was a complete loss.

The team scrambled to procure back-up equipment and get it to Texas in time for Friday's on-track activities. Annett will run Sunday's race driving teammate Justin Allgaier's back-up car.

The team is still investigating the cause of the fire.
