all things Shane Van Gisbergen

[acmerocket]

this guy is going to be fun to watch. lets keep everything here.
anymore races this year?
what will 2024 look like.
trackhouse plus
if it was me i would do all the cup races.because these cars are now so different. he most likely would make it to the payoffs.

I hope he gets a cooler sponsor because the whatever health paint scheme isn't cool enough for SVG.

 

[acmerocket]

its going to look good in red bull colors

 

[jaqua19]

I still think he's gonna run an oval race in the project 91 car this year.

That's the big implied prize for signing SVG.

Throw him out there at Darlington

Talk about throwing the poor guy to the wolves!

Didn't there used to be a day before Speedweek for Rookies to take the track and display that they are able to get around at speed? Or am I thinking Indy Car & the 500?

That's the Indy 500. For NASCAR, they typically make you run the ARCA race before the 500 if you're jumping right into Cup.

I have not seen any antagonism from the garage toward him yet. That being said, I feel certain he is smart enough to talk to vets that have a lot of oval experience before doing a serious CUP oval race. JMHO.

More than likely he will run some SLM races and Trucks prior to CUP oval appearance.

Darlington or Phoenix in my opinion. Phoenix is probably the perfect scenario for him to get the reps in.

Most of the field will be trying to stay out of the championship 4's way, And I think that's probably a best-case scenario for him. It's an opportunity for him to really ride around

I’m not one to immediately point to success after just two races, but a 1st and 10th in your first two cup starts is quite impressive, even if they were both at a track type he’s used to. AJ shines on road courses, but is mediocre on ovals, so that might be enough evidence to say that SVG will need a lot of practice before he’ll be competitive throughout an entire cup schedule.

Wonder if it'd help if he ran SRX next year...

Shane wins Australia’s Great Race one more time.

not much news on 2024 plans yet

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I'm confused again. What does a Kaulig driver have to with Van G.?

[rd45usa]

Didn't end well for him. Dang!

A few weeks ago he said about 20 races, but I’m not sure if that referred to the Cup Series, NASCAR, or his overall program (including late models, etc). And then aiming for full-time Cup in 2025.

 

[Greg]

He can do simulatiors to prepare for 2024.

They could also set up a weekend gone wrong with a blow up doll to to prepare him for some ADVERSITY and to give him some righteous attitude.

Then they could turm him loose and hope for the best.

This will make silly season for Trackhouse interesting. They have Suarez, Ross, Zane and SVG with only 2 charters

I expect they'll either buy a third charter before '25, or run a Trackhouse-prepared car under another team's charter.

Pretty important year for Suarez I think. I don’t believe he can afford to miss the playoffs again. Even if they add a charter in 2025 there’s one guy who’s going to be on the outside looking in, should Zane and SVG progress as they hope.
