It’s still weird for me seeing someone in the 24 car not named Jeff Gordon. Especially when Jeff’s paint schemes, who I watched as a third grader all the way up until I bought my house as a 30 year old adult are run as throwbacks. Such is life, and I don’t think about it as much but sometimes it gets me.
No issue. Just random. Of all the numbers to market SVG with. No connection to Dale Jr. or Dale Jarrett.
Folks have him going to FRM, but he’d be intriguing in the 7
Sounds like Ford needs to get over hurt feelings. Who is the future for them? Austin Cindric sure doesn't seem to be it. Noah has potential, I guess. I don't see Todd ever being more than the "good racer".
Two chances out of 40 aren't great odds, even with two drivers like Logano and Blaney.
Allgaier is a fixture at JRM and the senior leader and mentor among the drivers. He is a perennial final four contender and the winningest active full time Xfinity driver by a WIDE margin. He also brings solid sponsorship from Brandt, where Kelley Earnhardt is on the BOD. If ANYBODY ever gets let go at JRM, he will likely be one of the very last out the door that doesn't have the last name Earnhardt.
He's also the on-call substitute driver for Hendrick, if I'm remembering correctly. That's another reason he's not likely to be let go. Barring some contractual violation, Li'l Gator is with JRM as long as he wants.
Hardly the first time Ford have made puzzling driver personnel decisions.
Ford has no development drivers now.
And so are races at Daytona and Talladega
I hope they aren't losing whoever is in charge of their Xfinity stuff. They have been really competitive. They are getting Creed and Mayer I believe next year. Mayer is fast but needs to tone it down a little, like they say, it is easier to slow a fast driver down than to make a slow one fast. Creed is a top 5 driver so I think Haas won't be hurting in Xfinity next year. Custer to cup might be another story.
Custer gonna be doing a lot of cus-sing
Sure its a B2B deal. His dad is president and CEO of Rheem. Richmond is a division of Rheem, Menards sells the crap out of Richmond water heaters. Connect the dots....
Jones dad is the former CEO of Rheem and is apparently good friends with John Menard.
If you had been keeping track, regular Xfinity drivers have only won 2 races this year.
Jones isn't any spring chicken anymore, he has some miles on him. Sounds like more of a money move than a performance one. Eh, the good part is it leaves a hole that JRM gets to fill hopefully. It's a good ride.
