Deegan update

[aunty dive]

If they spend enough at SHR they might move forward from the mid-pack.

Might.

Brett Moffitt qualified the # 25 AM Racing Ford in 27th position for today’s B Main event at The Roval.

He was 1 3/4 seconds off the pole time.

27th qualifying position again today at Las Vegas for the 25.

1.049 sec off the pace.

I think she’ll do better in Xfinity. Trucks is a bit of a **** show anyways

 

[aunty dive]

I hope you’re right.

My guess is, much like Danica's last season, team is over it. See ya... don't let the door hit ya.

I never really got that vibe watching her truck owner or any of her crew when they were interacting with her. They actually seemed pretty upbeat and supportive.

The Thorsport crew likes her a lot, at least personally. Rich Lushes goes to her SRX races to support her.

Bringing Hailie Deegan in means more direct support from Ford Performance and SHR.

That’s the play here.

 

[RaceCritter]

I get her getting constant attention bugs some people and the hype was hype so far.

But one thing she doesn’t get credit for is that a ton of people wouldn’t even know what the truck series was without her. It will be interesting to see if attention and viewership drop off in a serious way next year. If so, then all those good ok boys there may wish she’d come back because it will impact their bottom line. Eyes on the TV = $$

 

[Nitro Dude]

May the force be with Hailie in 2024.

 

[StandOnIt]

And 2025

 

[BobbyFord]

Hailie never gonna win a non rain shortened race in NASCAR.

I have to think it's not that bad, right? I don't really listen to the radio, but it seems like Hailee isn't really pissing people off?

Lost a lap for an uncontrolled tire, and lost two laps for too many over the wall...Ugh.

Crew is phoning it in. They DGAF. Has the 4th tier crew at best. But she's lost all confidence so doesn't really matter. Maybe 2 more years then she's off to something else.

As if she would’ve run top 5 without the penalties.

It was actually definitely possible for her to be in the first 5, as long as they are doing a rundown of the field in reverse order, so yes as if.

But "millions of followers" and "social media" and "62 pages" and "bigger than Danica."

I check Natalie Decker sometimes, that girl has some spiritual moments.

I think Decker has had "work" done on her upper chassis.

She has some great moves as well....

Most of them have. Deegan sure did. Probably same surgeon her mom used.

 

[Efisher131]

Just a reminder, truck top 5s:
Natalie Decker 1
Hailie Deegan 0

Post #2276. Compare to her instagram from 2022.

Still think Deegan's going to be better in Xfinity. I don't think she'll light the world on fire, but she'll probably be in the top-15 more, and run well enough for her fans to prop her up as The One.

How many top 5s in Xfin season one?

 

[kkfan91]

Well now there are some disappointed weirdos

I think that is generous.

There’s a lot of plate races.

Happy for them.

 

[Nitro Dude]

Happy for them.

Yep, they definitely seem to really be enjoying their life together...and that is something that a lot of couples in this world are not doing. I have so many friends that are married but they are miserable. I know this as fact because I usually end up having to listen to both sides when they are venting.

 

[Naitch]

There’s a lot of plate races.

Deegan is more likely to cause a big wreck or get caught up in one. She doesn’t have the crash avoidance skills necessary to pull that off.

 

[HoneyBadger]

None.

But I think she gets 2-3 top-10s IF her team gets SHR support.

A few of these plate races in Trucks, she's driven a perfect race and got caught up in someone else's mess. One of the Daytona races last year comes to mind.
