Kingsland Police Department reported Kyle’s car, trailer, and truck was stolen while his team was sleeping in hotel rooms after the race. The pickup truck was a 2000 silver Ford F350 and was parked in a Cracker Barrel parking lot next to the Super 8 hotel that they stopped at for the night. The police report was shared on NBC Sports.
The truck was seen on the surveillance camera leaving the parking lot at 5:55am on Sunday, just six hours after it was initially parked.
Mike Harmon Racing posted a reward offering $10,000 to whoever finds the vehicle, the trailer, and the race car. The value of the items in the trailer is worth $400,000, the police report said.

Kyle Weatherman posted a video thanking the NASCAR community for all their supportive messages and calls. Though it is a hard time for Mike Harmon Racing and himself, he says keeping a positive attitude and staying focused on the team’s goals is what matters.
The vehicles have still not been found as of Wednesday. They were last seen on I-95 South, on the way back toward Florida.
Thank you @NASCAR Community for the phone calls/text messages. Really hard time for @MhrRacing and myself but it won’t stop us from our goal. See everyone in @MonsterMile 👍🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻 pic.twitter.com/doFy7wUW68
