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

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.

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 = $$

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?

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.

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

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?

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.

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.

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.
