Chase Elliott had a stellar performance last weekend. He finally got a win at his home track, and a dominating one, adding 3 wins to his name this season. However, Rick Hendrick had his eyes set on a Non-Hendrick Motorsports driver to take the win at Atlanta Motor Speedway. So who is this mystery driver Mr. H wished to win the race?

Mr. H wanted the Spire Motorsports driver, Corey LaJoie, to take the win if a Hendrick driver couldn’t. “I was proud and excited and if we couldn’t win, I wanted (LaJoie) to win.” He complimented LaJoie’s driving style and expressed how he wanted the Spire Motorsports driver to win if Chase Didn’t. Hendrick said, “He’s a great guy. That was a Cinderella story, and if we couldn’t win, I wanted him to win. He looked as good as anyone in this field today.” Himself for Nearly Losing 2020 NASCAR Championship [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nascar-news-i-thought-i-ended-our-hopes-chase-elliotts-team-member-blames-himself-for-nearly-losing-2020-nascar-championship/] But why did Mr. H want a driver from Spire Motorsports to win? Well, the two teams are connected. THE ALLIANCE OF HENDRICK MOTORSPORTS AND SPIRE MOTORSPORTS Spire Motorsports has an alliance with Hendrick Motorsports, which is somewhat like 23XI Racing’s partnership with Joe Gibbs Racing.

Hendrick Motorsports

What is Hendrick Motorsports? There are a few motorsports teams in the world that can boast of the kind of achievements that Hendrick Motorsports has had. Rick Hendrick&#8216;s organization is the winningest team in the history of the NASCAR Cup Series and after four decades of existence, they are only getting better. It&#8217;s not just the Cup Series that the team has been successful in as they have Xfinity and Truck Series championships in their cabinet as well. When it comes to dominance in stock car racing, no team has ever matched up to the brilliance of HMS no matter what obstacles have come their way.

Mandatory Credit: Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports The history of Hendrick Motorsports Back when NASCAR&#8217;s popularity was on a meteoric rise, a car dealership owner by the name of Rick Hendrick founded a race team called All-Star Racing along with Harry Hyde. The following year, its name was changed to what fans are familiar with today, Hendrick Motorsports. At the time, things were not easy for Hendrick and there were genuine fears about the team being forced to shut down operations in its very first season. However, when Geoff Bodine defied the odds to win their first race in 1984 at Martinsville, a lot of people, including Hendrick himself, rested easy.

(Photo by Rainier Ehrhardt/Getty Images) The team&#8217;s expansion as a prominent Cup Series competitor came to fruition in 1986 when they upgraded from one car to two and then to three in 1987. In 2002, Rick Hendrick decided to have four cars in NASCAR&#8217;s biggest competition and that has been their lineup ever since. Several great racers have had the honor of driving for the legendary team but their first-ever Cup Series champion was Jeff Gordon in 1995. Today, the 52-year-old is the vice-chairman and co-owner of the team and he also has an equity stake in the #24 team which currently has William Byron as its driver. Why is the team named Hendrick Motorsports? Well, it is quite obvious why Hendrick Motorsports is called Hendrick Motorsports. The team is the brainchild of Rick Hendrick so it seems only fair that it is named after the great motorsports veteran. However, when the organization was founded in 1984, it was called All-Star Racing. The rebranding of the team took place just one year into its existence but since then, it has remained the same. Today, the name Hendrick Motorsports is synonymous with success in NASCAR. Hendrick Motorsports net worth 2024 Being the most successful Cup Series team sure has its perks and one of them is its sheer value. Today, Hendrick Motorsports is among the richest motorsports organizations the world has ever known. The team&#8217;s net worth as of 2024 has not been made available as of yet but a Forbes report in 2020 pegged it to be at a whopping $315 million. That number has certainly increased as the team has won two Cup Series titles since then. Their success has also earned an astronomical amount of personal wealth for Rick Hendrick, whose net worth is estimated to be a whopping $1.1 billion.

Mandatory Credit: Mike Dinovo-USA TODAY Sports But it&#8217;s not just the race wins and championships that determine a team&#8217;s net worth. A lot of that has to do with the sponsorship deals and endorsements that the team has. Hendrick Motorsports has the backing of some of the biggest companies in the world like Chevrolet, Ally, Coca-Cola, and Hooters just to name a few. Reports in 2023 also suggested that the team was investing in a $23 million facility in Concord which would only add to the team&#8217;s earnings in the future. Hendrick Motorsports racing drivers When the team was first started in 1984, Hendrick Motorsports only had one car in the Cup Series. However, as time went by and they racked up the wins and championships, Rick Hendrick began his expansion. In 2002, the team had four cars in the competition and that is the case today as well. The four teams that race full-time for the team in NASCAR&#8217;s biggest competitions are the #5, #9, #24 and #48. Each of these numbers has a lot of history behind them. The #5, currently being driven by Kyle Larson, was the first car that Rick Hendrick fielded when the team was founded in 1984. Its first driver was Geoff Bodine who won a race in that very season at Martinsville to get the ball rolling for the future. The car&#8217;s first Cup Series championship came in 1996 when Terry Labonte won it all and its second came in 2021 with Larson. Several other greats have also driven for the number, such as people like Ricky Rudd, Kyle Busch, Kasey Kahne, and Mark Martin.

Mandatory Credit: David Yeazell-USA TODAY Sports The #9 has only ever seen one full-time driver but that man is well on his way to becoming one of the greatest the sport has ever seen. Chase Elliott has been one of the brightest stars in stock car racing for a while now and he won his only Cup Series championship so far with the #9 in 2020. He used to drive the #24 but was renumbered after the 2017 season to honor his father, Bill Elliott, who drove a #9 for most of his career.

(Photo by Sean Gardner/Getty Images) The #24 is what brought success to Hendrick Motorsports in terms of championships for the first time. Jeff Gordon was the driver of the car when the team won their first-ever Cup Series championship and the NASCAR legend went on to win three more titles with the same number. The #24 holds a legendary status in all of NASCAR and today, it is being driven by one of the brightest and most talented racers in stock car racing, William Byron.

Mandatory Credit: Jasen Vinlove-USA TODAY Sports And then there&#8217;s the #48. It is the most successful number in modern-day NASCAR as the legendary Jimmie Johnson won a whopping seven Cup Series titles in that car. The #48 is the car that holds the record for winning the most number of successful Cup Series championships with five with Johnson. Anyone who gets the opportunity to sit behind the wheel of the #48 has massive shoes to fill and as of 2024, that person is Alex Bowman. The likes of Noah Gragson and Josh Berry have also raced in it on a few occasions. And then there was the #88 which was also driven by Bowman but made famous by Dale Earnhardt Jr. He might not have won a Cup Series championship with the car but he certainly won a lot of fans in it during his time at the team, and several race victories.

Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-USA TODAY Sports Hendrick Motorsports partnerships and endorsements Rick Hendrick&#8217;s organization has some of the biggest partnership deals in NASCAR today with some of the biggest companies in the world. One of the racing team&#8217;s oldest relationships is with Chevrolet, which has been its engine manufacturer since the beginning. As per an article on the Hendrick Motorsports website, Mr H had said the team was lucky to have been with Chevrolet since the beginning. Apart from the American car manufacturer, HMS has partnership deals with companies like NAPA, Ally, Valvoline, Axalta, Hooters, Coca-Cola, and Liberty University. The interesting one among all the aforementioned organizations is Liberty University which sponsors the #24 car of William Byron. It has been with the Cup Series star since 2014 and the current contract runs until the end of the 2026 season. The partnership has helped the university as HMS backs the School of Engineeringâ€™s Formula SAE effort which is one for the future as it deals with EV technology. Hendrick Automotive went one step further to help develop a degree specialization in automotive dealership management. Hendrick Motorsports investments A team the size and success of Hendrick Motorsports will make investments where it sees fit but one such attempt had not sat well with fans. In 2023, reports emerged that the Charlotte Motor Speedway had sold a whopping 82 acres of land to an entity related to Hendrick Motorsports for $22.6 million. It sent fears of the iconic race track suffering the same fate as Fontana. As per the Charlotte Business Journal, the land will be used for a couple of advanced manufacturing projects under Mr H. After the sale, the city of Concord gave the green light to Rick Hendrick for the project to be undertaken, which will reportedly have an investment of $23.7 million. It will be interesting to see if the project affects the Charlotte Motor Speedway in any way and if so, how. Hendrick Motorsports major achievements and awards It is no wonder that Hendrick Motorsports is one of the biggest teams in stock car racing today as it is the most successful. The team has won more races and more championships than any other team in the history of the Cup Series. They have 14 Cup Series championship wins and more than 300 race wins so far in their illustrious history. Rick Hendrick&#8217;s organization became the team with the most race wins in the Cup when they overtook Petty Enterprises in 2021 and won their 269th race. The team&#8217;s 14 Cup Series successes have come with drivers like Jeff Gordon (4), Jimmie Johnson (7, including 5 in a row), Terry Labonte (1), Chase Elliott (1) and Kyle Larson (1). But the Cup is not where the success story stops. Mr H&#8217;s team has won the NASCAR Xfinity Series once (2003) and the Truck Series on 3 occasions (1997,1999, 2001). For his achievements in the competition, team owner Rick Hendrick was bestowed with the honor of being inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2017.Â  But that did not stop his ambitions from expanding onto the global stage. HOMESTEAD, FL &#8211; NOVEMBER 20: Jimmie Johnson, driver of the #48 Lowe&#8217;s Chevrolet, poses for a portrait after winning the 2016 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. (Photo by Jonathan Ferrey/NASCAR via Getty Images) Hendrick Motorsports and Garage 56 One of the first steps to that expansion was the team&#8217;s shocking run in the 2023 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The project was called Garage 56 and Hendrick Motorsports brought a roaring modified stock car to the south of France to run the iconic race. It was truly a sight to see on the track as the huge #24 car completed the laps. The team had three of the best drivers in the world &#8211; Jimmie Johnson, Jenson Button, and Mike Rockenfeller. The goal was to finish the race which the team did in P39 out of 62. Certainly an impressive result for a debutante team. Hendrick Motorsports&#8217; fateful plane crash The team may enjoy its time as one of the biggest race teams in the world right now but the road has been a rocky one for Rick Hendrick and others involved. The legendary team owner suffered an unthinkable personal tragedy in 2004 when a plane crash took the lives of several people he considered near and dear, including his son Ricky Hendrick. The others who met their demise were John Hendrick and his daughters, Kimberly and Jennifer Hendrick, Jeff Turner, and Randy Dortom. They were all employees at HMS. The accident was attributed in part to pilot error, both of whom also lost their lives in the crash. Other passengers included Joe Jackson and Scott Lathram.

Born on November 28, 1995, Chase Elliott is a Georgia native and currently resides in Dawsonville. His father is former NASCAR Cup Series driver and 16-time MPD award winner Bill Elliott. His mother, Cindy K Elliott, is truly the backbone of Chase Elliott's racing career. Chase Elliott's parents have been instrumental in helping their son reach where he is today.

R: Bill Elliott. Image Credits: Imago.[/caption]
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliott's wife and children</strong></h2>
Chase Elliott has never been very open about his private life. Though the driver has been romantically linked to a woman named Ashley Anderson, a University of Georgia graduate, since 2o21, an official confirmation is yet to come. The #9 driver has never been married and does not have any children.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliott's net worth 2024</strong></h2>
Given Chase Elliott's dominance on the racetrack and his consistent performances, the driver enjoys quite a lot in monetary income. As per reports, the driver has an estimated net worth of $12 million which is inclusive of his endorsements, accumulated prize money and salary. As per Forbes, Chase Elliott reportedly made $10.2 million in 2020. As for his endorsements, Elliott has an endorsement with NAPA and Chevrolet. Apart from that, he is also associated with soft drink brand Mountain Dew, uniform rental company UniFirst, engineering &amp; technology company Bosch and multinational conglomerate Siemens.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliottâ€™s career timeline</strong></h2>
Chase Elliott has been associated with racing since his teenage days. But his golden days arrived in 2010 when, at just 15 years of age, Elliott won 12 events in a single year and featured in the Top 10 a staggering 38 times. He was also named the Georgia Asphalt Pro Late Model Series Rookie of the Year. The very next year, the driver went on to win his first Snowball Derby, thereby becoming the race's youngest winner. And that's not all. At just 18 years of age, in 2013, Chase Elliott became the first-ever driver to win all four of the US's largest short track races, namely, the All-American 400, the Winchester 400, the World Crown 300, and the Snowball Derby.

He also was getting involved in stints in the ARCA circuit around the same time and, in 2013, with his Pocono Raceway win, Elliott became the youngest winner in ARCA superspeedway history.

The driver slowly rose through the ranks to reach his final destination, NASCAR. After a brief stint in the K &amp; N Pro Series, the driver finally made his debut in one of the top 3 factions of the stock car racing organization, the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/nascar-truck-series/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Craftsman Truck Series</a>, in 2013. Driving for Hendrick Motorsports, the driver made his Truck debut at Martinsville Speedway where he finished P6.

The following year, the driver, for the first time in his career, started his <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/nascar-xfinity-series/">Xfinity Series</a> career and made his well-deserved debut at the Daytona International Speedway and finished P15. But his true calling finally arrived in 2015 when he made participated in the NASCAR Cup Series. Barring his first year, the driver has participated in the division full-time since 2016. And boy did he show consistent results. While he finished tenth in standings in 2016, in the following year, he finished 5th. His most notable year came in 2020 when he clinched the Cup Series Championship for the first time in his career.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliottâ€™s partnerships and endorsements</strong></h2>
Ever since Chase Elliott entered into the Cup Series, the driver hasn't had to worry about sponsorships and has had big names backing him. The National Automotive Parts Association(NAPA) was one of the very first to lend their support as they signed a three-year deal, to be a primary sponsor, with Elliott ahead of his 2016 full-time Cup debut.<img class="alignnone wp-image-2576662 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/chase-elliott-sceme.jpeg" alt="" width="1220" height="661" />

Later, in 2020, Hooters signed Chase Elliott as its brand ambassador in a multi-year deal for its Hooters Spirits line. The brand Elliott was a two-race primary sp0nsor in 2017 and one race in 2019. Additionally, they also appeared in three more races in 2022, including the World Wide Technology Raceway, and two NASCAR Cup Series playoff races at Bristol Motor Speedway and Las Vegas Motor Speedway. <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nascar-news-lfg-champ-chase-elliott-bedazzles-nascar-fans-as-he-unveils-his-twenty-twenty-four-napa-ride/">The brand is also set to appear in the 2024 season</a> in three races.

Coca-Cola also joined Chase Elliott's team in 2023 as the official beverage partner. The brand appeared as an associate sponsor for the #9 team in select races, starting with the 2023 Daytona 500. Talking about the iconic partnership, Chris Bigda, director of sports marketing of the brand in North America, had said at the time, <em>"Coca-Cola is proud to welcome Chase to its Coca-Cola Racing Family and launch its partnership with Hendrick Motorsports.</em> <em>Continuing to partner with the Elliott family is an honor and thrilling legacy, as Chase joins our Coca-Cola Racing Family 25 years after his father Bill Elliott was a founding member back in 1998. Weâ€™re excited for our future together and refreshing this championship team on and off the track."</em>

Apart from that, UniFirst has also been a long-time primary partner of Chase Elliott, dating back to 2019. In 2024, the company will appear in five races, starting with Richmond Raceway. Its other appearances include <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/martinsville-speedway/">Martinsville Speedway</a> (April 7), <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/darlington-raceway/">Darlington Raceway</a> (May 12), Kansas Speedway (Sep. 29), and the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/charlotte-motor-speedway/">Charlotte Motor Speedway</a> aka the Charlotte Roval (Oct 30).
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliott's NASCAR career stats</strong></h2>
With an average finish of 13.05, Chase Elliott has 18 victories in his Cup Series career, which includes 152 Top 10s and 12 pole positions. In his Xfinity career, the #9 HMS driver has finished P1 on five occasions besides clinching 67 Top 10s and two pole positions. As for NASCAR's third faction, the Truck Series, the driver has three wins, 15 Top 10s, and three poles.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliottâ€™s records</strong></h2>
Chase Elliott has several memorable records to his name. At 22 years, 10 months, and nine days old, the driver became the youngest winner at Dover Motor Speedway in October 2018 after beating seasoned NASCAR veterans like Denny Hamlin (P2), <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/joey-logano/">Joey Logano</a> (P3), <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kurt-busch/">Kurt Busch</a> (P5) and the reigning Dover Motor Speedway winner from earlier that year, Kevin Harvick (P6).

Another record that the driver succeeded in getting was when he won on the 1.5-mile Kansas Speedway track in the Cup Series in 2018, thereby becoming the youngest winner. Apart from that, Chase Elliott is also the youngest winner at the Darlington Raceway in the Xfinity Series.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliottâ€™s major achievements and awardsÂ </strong></h2>
After just four full-time seasons in NASCAR's top division, Chase Elliott clinched the 2020 Cup Series Championship at 24 years, 11 months and 11 days old. He was the third youngest Cup champion in NASCAR history after beating Brad Keselowski(P2), Joey Logano(P3), and Denny Hamlin(P4) that year.

Even off the racetrack, Chase Elliott has a variety of accolades to showcase. Following in his father Bill Elliott's footsteps, the HMS driver continues to be the reigning Most Popular Driver Award winner with six consecutive wins. In 2016, he took home the Rookie of the Year honor in the Cup Series after securing 10 top-five and 17 top-10 finishes in 36 starts, including a pair of runner-up finishes, both at Michigan International Speedway. He also won two poles that year.

Chase Elliott was also named as one of the 75 Greatest Drivers in 2023 on the stock car racing organization's 75th Anniversary alongside Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kevin-harvick/">Kevin Harvick</a>, among others.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Â Chase Elliottâ€™s playoff heartbreak</strong></h2>
As a Cup Series driver, it is certainly not easy to keep up consistency. However, Chase Elliott seemed to be quite promising on that front with regular playoff appearances since his debut season. However, come 2023, an unfortunate injury took away his playoff chances. The driver was reportedly snowboarding in Colorado when he suffered from a fractured tibia in his left leg. Subsequently, he missed six races and had to be substituted by Josh Berry.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Chase Elliott suspension</strong></h2>
2023 wasn't really Chase Elliott's year.

<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick’s Net Worth 2023 (Update)</strong></h2>
Without a doubt, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rick-hendrick/">Rick Hendrick</a> remains one of the most popular and household names in NASCAR. With his knowledge and expertise in motorsports, the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/hendrick-motorsports/">Hendrick Motorsports</a> owner has been a massive asset to the sport. Over the years, Hendrick has invested in a number of different ventures.

As per CelebrityNetWorth, Rick Hendrick has a net worth of around $1 billion. It comes as no surprise given how he has been involved in the sport for several decades. He owns the Hendrick Automotive Group which possesses 140 franchises in 14 different states.

Although his salary remains unknown with the organizations he's involved in, Hendrick is expected to be doing very well with his investments and assets.
<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick’s Early Life </strong></h2>
Not many know but Joseph Riddick Hendrick III was once a motorcar driver. Born on July 12, 1949, in Warrenton, North Carolina, Rick began racing at the age of 14. Interestingly, at that very age, he used a self-built 1931 Chevrolet to start drag racing.

As a young man, he often volunteered as a crew member during his travel to race tracks. Hendrick was raised on a tobacco farm near the small community of Palmer Springs, Virginia. In fact, once he was done with his high school, he shifted to Raleigh, North Carolina in order to pursue a co-op program with North Carolina State University and Westinghouse Electric Corp.

Despite his initial intent to become a tool and die maker, his passion for cars drove him to a different career path and as it is said, the rest is history.
<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick’s family and Personal life</strong></h2>
Rick Hendrick was blessed to have amazing parents in the form of Joseph and Mary Hendrick. While his father Papa Joe was a tobacco farmer, his mother taught Sunday school. In their younger days, Rick Hendrick and his brother John Hendrick used to help out their father on the farm.

While Hendrick tried to maintain his innocence, he kept fighting a gruesome battle with leukemia then. Eventually, in 1998, he was sentenced to one year of home detention, three years of probation, and a penalty of $250,000 for his participation in the bribery and kickback scandal.

During the time he served his home confinement, Hendrick was disallowed to take part in his auto dealership business and NASCAR operations.
<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick's</strong><strong> Car collection</strong></h2>
It is no secret that Rick Hendrick has immense love and passion when it comes to cars. Over the years, the car enthusiast has not only built enormous wealth but also a fabulous collection of cars. In fact, he has some of the finest Corvette collections in the world.

As per Detroit Free Press, Hendrick owns 210 of the rarest cars parked in the Hendrick Heritage Center. In the 58,000-square-foot building, he has amassed a collection of 120 Corvettes. Among those are the 2020 C8 Corvette Stingray, Corvettes built from 1955 to 1957, and the first ZR1. Not only that, two Corvettes owned by King Leopold III of Belgium and one by Mexico President Gustavo Diaz Ordaz also belong to Hendrick.



Another famous addition to his collection is a 1967 Corvette, once owned by the late singer, songwriter, and musician Roy Orbison. Other than Corvettes, the collection includes the Chevrolet Lumina used in the movie <em>Days of Thunder</em> and a Camaro once in possession of baseball legend Reggie Jackson. However, his favorite car remains a 1931 Chevrolet built by Hendrick and his father.

Truly, the Heritage Center is a delight to get a tour of and witness some of the finest cars in the world. Other than housing cars, it also contains a replica of Hendrick's father's general store and the gas station where he met his wife, and the bank where his mother worked.
<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick’s</strong><strong> House </strong></h2>
Rick Hendrick lives in a grand mansion in Charlotte, North Carolina, showcasing his legendary stature. He owns a six-bedroom house possessing 12,000 square feet of space. Amazingly, it was built in 2000 and was bought for around $3.6 million by Hendrick.

In fact, the lot that the mansion sits on is around 1.62 acres. The house has seven bathrooms, a fabulous pool, fireplaces, and plenty of other gorgeous architectural structures. Currently, he lives at the mansion with his wife, Linda. The house is located in Mecklenburg County.
<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick’s Drivers</strong></h2>
Being one of the giants in the NASCAR Cup Series, Rick Hendrick's team has a strong lineup in the competition. <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kyle-larson">Kyle Larson</a>, Chase Elliott, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/william-byron/">William Byron</a>, and Alex Bowman form a formidable team to compete for Hendrick Motorsports. While <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/chase-elliott/">Elliott</a> and Larson have had a taste of winning the championship, Byron and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alex-bowman/">Bowman</a> have done decently well.

Elliott drives the #9 car and was the Cup Series winner in 2020. On the other hand, Kyle Larson won the title a year later and has been one of the most competitive drivers since. Byron has had a terrific 2023 season so far with four wins to his name. With injuries hampering Elliott's and Bowman's playoff chances this campaign, Rick Hendrick would be relying heavily on Larson and Byron to make it big.
<h2><strong>Rick Hendrick’s Assets</strong></h2>
In addition to owning a gorgeous mansion and some wonderful assets, Rick Hendrick also has a stake in <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/jr-motorsports/">JR Motorsports</a>.

While owning motorsports teams and a great mansion is not enough, Hendrick has a marvelous yacht to his name too. The $35 million worth of yacht is named "Wheels" and it has a running cost of around $3 million.  Easily, it can accommodate 12 guests in 6 luxurious cabins as it features top-of-the-line engineering.
