No you are moving the goal post, as usual. The topic was equipment, now that I used you up, you change it. Your post #1154 where you even bolded my words proves it. We werent talking about Organizations. I would say nice try but its really not.
Equipment, bud. Equipment. You've got Deegan, I've got Corey Heim. lol
I've got 4 Fords in better equipment. Good luck
No, no you dont. Doors open for you to tell me what the equipment is you have thats better. What kind of engine is that Ford running again?
I'd love to see that as well, don't think it's likely to happen in 2023 though.i think this would be a good year for her,i would love to see her get a win.just because,well you know
I think having another season under her belt and being more comfortable at these race tracks will help her. I guess its all gonna also gonna be how she jives with her new crew chief.
poeple dont understand how much a team that is 100% behind you can help. iam thinking if thats the case here, iam hoping for. 8 to 10 top 10s. and 1 win would change everything.
Why do you think her team wasnt behind her last year? They even swapped crew chiefs for her, 2 crew chiefs who I will add were Multi time winning crew chiefs, 2 of the best on the business.
ooooooooooooooooooookkkkkkkkkk loli dont see that anywhere in my post,
I'm not saying the team wasn't behind her but there's plenty of examples of successful crew chiefs that didn't believe in their driver and the combination wasn't successful.
This is shocking to me - I thought she was doing all kinds of work in the sim, etc....Im tbh a bit bummed.
She does the bare minimum. Is never around the shop (even once blew off a seat fitting). I am sure she does sim, but only if it's scheduled. She'll never ask for more time. She won't even sign fan mail! Most kids at the Truck level live in the shops and at the tracks. They (well, most) spend every waking minute working on their careers. I would be surprised if she knew the name of the hauler driver. She was like that way with Toyota too, which is why they punted her. Data showed she wasn't good enough to climb the ladder, and their experiences showed she probably wouldn't do what it took to get good enough.
I hope she changes too. Thanks ever so much for your insight @Allenbaba
after seeing Allenbaba post,i now know that i forgot that it works both ways. hope the new team will kick her it the ass and get her on the right road
He races a micro, does the publicity, races on the new go kart track and works in the new shop they are building and drives a loaded Ford SUV.
If you want to believe unfounded rumors I guess that works. I haven't read any of that from reputable sources like someone from the organization(s). Pockrass said, they being Thorspot, wanted Deegan to be in the deal so

Well spotter, you don't think Deegan is in better equipment at ThorSport. Well riddle me this then. In the five years Gilliland has been in the truck series they have a total of four wins. How could Thorsport have over twice as many wins at 10 and two championships in the same 5 year period? What Deegan does in better equipment remains to be seen, but Gilliland loses big time in that area. Ford dropped them like a hot potato.
I've already told you that DGR is basically a training ground and contract young inexperienced drivers but when they put experienced drivers in they ran up front and could win. Thats how. Now Riddler, tell me what equipment Thorsport has that is better?? I'll wait
Your wait is over. Preece was driving SHR prepared trucks.
Toyota loses their best truck team and their best cup driver and no slouch truck driver, that's three trucks. Then they lose their second best truck team with ThorSport that's 4 more for a total of 7 trucks they lost in the series. Talk about gutted. Some was self inflicted and the other probably came from lack of funding. They had better hope their affiliates? pull thru. I can't figure out who they would be affiliates to though. I guess Gilliland is the mother team or maybe everybody is on their own?
When it became apparent KBM was gone, just about every team (who could) threw out the red carpet for TRD in hopes of becoming their new #1 team (including a few owners not currently in trucks). Lots of meetings and negotiations, but in the end TRD chose DGR. Why? No clue. But that choice did not sit well with Thor (who it seemed like was the choice for a while), so they flipped them some birds and called Ford, and ended up taking in Hailie as part of the "deal." TRD has other plans in the works to eventually beef up. But in the meantime, could be pretty heated on the track this year! Seems like bad blood everywhere. Should be a fun season.
