Believing in someone's talents doesn't automatically mean we believe they're good ones.So we believe in his talents....

i would like to see Rodney and Mcdowell ,i think they could win some racersKaulig/Spire/Trackhouse.
SVG is going to be in a cup car, Trackhouse believes in Zane Smith and wants to build with him as well. Now, Spire has their proven winner and veteran in McDowell. I could see SVG taking over the 16 next year as well.
I can see Hocevar moving to the 7, Zane to the 77, and McDowell is already confirmed the 71 for Spire.
Lajoie IMHO has options. Maybe Spire gets their truck youngsters in xfinity. I could see Corey stepping down or maybe if they have interest, I could see him in the 15 on a full-time basis with his funding he has from personal sponsorship. Corey helped Spire through its growth process and they were ready to move on, it's business. Corey will be find and will land somewhere, IMHO.
Bob swatting away social media’s driver suggestions for the 7
He could be the next Crafton or Algaier...Corey needs to go down to xfinity or trucks and be the new cup veteran in the lower series IMO

Signed up in the Truck series for the third year.CFH. Let's go!!!!!!
He's 17, I can't see anybody saying that, but he's a good prospect.Zilisch has been crowned the next Richard petty but I don’t buy it yet… immensely talented but he has 1 truck series start and reddit already has him winning the 2026 cup series championship

Cory Day is going to be hard to ignore. His first shot in an ARCA car on pavement and he looked like a pro out there with good race craft and was in the top five the whole time and was making a run for the lead when he crashed. He left a whole lot of people wanting to see more of him in the future.Really hoping the 12th prospect develops into a solid cup driver...Corey Day.
I miss the days when established top dirt drivers would get a shot at NASCAR. It didn't work out many times but it was great watching guys like Kinser, the Swindells, Purvis and Combs get a chance at the bigs. I wonder if Rico had another shot now how that might turn out for him. Let's get Gravel, Sweet or even Haud in one of the cars!
I'll wait for your flop.Signed up in the Truck series for the third year.![]()
I do hope Heim flops and gets with an OEM that gets him the opportunities he has earned. He's going nowhere in the rice burners. Sure they will give him junk in Xfinity and cup to drive like they have been doing, but he is going nowhere.I'll wait for your flop.
Funny. I think Corey is eating just fine, and he is 22. Quit sipping the Smoke Kool-Aide.I do hope Heim flops and gets with an OEM that gets him the opportunities he has earned.

Well, they found somebody stupid enough to stay in the Truck series for three years when he has dominated the series since he has been there I give him that.
Sweet was a prospect at one point he drove things Xfinity but didn't light the world on fire. Gravel was starting that way made ARCA starts but Covid ended those plans pretty much and now I think he's set to dominate the Outlaws for years to come.Really hoping the 12th prospect develops into a solid cup driver...Corey Day.

I’ve been a huge advocate of Zilisch since he first started making noise on the IMSA ladder, but a lot of people tend to get carried away with the projections on how much and how soon a young prospect can produce at the top level. Let’s let him get on the big ovals for the first time and let him find his feet before prognosticating too much. I do think he may be in a Cup car by 2027, as he’s shown a lot of natural ability across a number of different types of machinery and tracks so far.Zilisch has been crowned the next Richard petty but I don’t buy it yet… immensely talented but he has 1 truck series start and reddit already has him winning the 2026 cup series championship

Hmm. Do they have a Charter, or are the doing Xfinity or Trucks.

I confess I'm not aware of previous cases where a newly hired crew chief had a veto regarding an existing driver.My guess is they gave Rodney free reign to do whatever he wanted with the #7 and Corey wasn't in his plans.
