23XI statement on not signing Charter agreement

[KTMLew01]

I wonder what a shock for a cup car would go for these days without some cost containment. A late model set was insanely expensive in the early 90s, no telling what it would be like today.

Current dirt SLM 5 shock set-up in the $5-6K area. Another grand for the 5th coil shock. Teams will have 4-5 sets plus tooling & a dyno to rebuild/mod them. Even playing in the dirt ain't cheap.

Maybe should mention the left rear suspension uses 2 shocks. So car has 6 shocks unless you touch the coil wire!

This thread has the momentum I think it will happen sometime in April.

I’m sure the thread can make it to 100 pages. Heck, personal animus could easily do 7 pages of its own!

FRM and 23XI filed their response to NASCAR’s appeal of the December injunction ruling that requires NASCAR to allow FRM and 23XI to race as chartered teams in 2025 with each having three charters that includes one each of them purchased in the offseason from Stewart-Haas Racing.
