BlaneyOther than Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt, have there been any second generation drivers that exceeded their parent?

It's a long time until next year. There will probably be more changes.Then I ask again, why stay pat on all personnel?
Right now it doesn't look like Rodney is coming. We'll see.So looks like Roger is gonna float the full ride. Maybe we will get another surprise soon and Rodney announces for the 21. He said he wanted another Title and Daytona 500 and I dont see him getting that with Custer. So does he want that, or Genes money? Its not like Rodney is poor.
Oh God yes. Honestly, Davey brought me to the sport (of course pre-Toyota days). Still have a t-shirt I bought on Pier 39 in San Francisco on my honeymoon. Back in the day...pre-internet, etc.....closest NASCAR shop to the Pacific Northwest that I was aware of. He was great. Losing him hit hard.We will never know but I believe Davey was on his way
...and I get that....as a Penske ride, Penske wants his Wood Bros/Penske culture....Rodney isn't a part of that....and let's be honest, Roger may not want to have anything to do with collapsing rear windows, and counterfeit rear blades....JGR is doing the same thing with Briscoe.Right now it doesn't look like Rodney is coming. We'll see.
Tell that to Kyle Bush. The one thing you can't control is the crash and burn mentality of the next generation drivers.On the contrary, I was saying he got the ride because he brought money. All the Wood Brothers need is a new Driver and engineering help. Everyone wants to talk about teams with better equipment, no such thing, everything is the same you just need someone who can drive it and engineers to tell you whats wrong
The same engineers work on the 2, 12, and 22.On the contrary, I was saying he got the ride because he brought money. All the Wood Brothers need is a new Driver and engineering help.

Well we are narrowing down the problemThe same engineers work on the 2, 12, and 22.
So few seats and Gragson is gonna get one thats certain. Probably FRI hope Gerbil Jeff doesn’t use the remaining portion of the year to subtly campaign for a job for his boy
Depends on how many wins Chase ends up with he already equals Bill in titles but right now I think Bill has 25 more wins. But Chase isn't even 30 yet.Other than Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt, have there been any second generation drivers that exceeded their parent?
The others will do that for him.I hope Gerbil Jeff doesn’t use the remaining portion of the year to subtly campaign for a job for his boy
Bass Pro needs someone to clean the trout streams and bass ponds.I hope Gerbil Jeff doesn’t use the remaining portion of the year to subtly campaign for a job for his boy
A paycheck probably larger, two teen boys and a wife wins everytime.If Rodney wants to win a D500 and a title it ain’t gonna happen at haas

FRM is the rumor for Mayer.Rumor has it Sam Mayer has been talking to a cup team.

Kinda surprised Herbst has not been on the radar for them considering all the one offs he's had in the 36.FRM is the rumor for Mayer.
He's supposedly rumored for 23XI because he's bringing moneyKinda surprised Herbst has not been on the radar for them considering all the one offs he's had in the 36.
Viable option for Mayer, it's a good situation at FRM with them expanding and becoming more competitive every season.
Okay, please qualify this comment with verifiable facts. In what way is he spoiled and how do you know his appendage size?Kinda hope the spoiled little prick gets it just so we can see him flounder…

B Kez. And Blaney was already mentioned. Davey Allison was speculated about, but such speculation doesn't count IMO.Other than Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt, have there been any second generation drivers that exceeded their parent?
Yeah, it's hard to see how Sam is any worse than Gragson, Hocevar, and Ty Gibbs. At one time or another, they've ALL needed to be knocked on their ass once or twice.Okay, please qualify this comment with verifiable facts. In what way is he spoiled and how do you know his appendage size?
Gainbridge - AndrettiWhere the hell is Spire getting all this money?
Where the hell is Spire getting all this money? This is a shocker to me and a terrible career move.
I'll give them credit, they aren't sitting on it and waiting for a rainy day, they are trying to become a power player and Rodney can certainly help with that but man why does he want to basically do a startup again? He's a glutton for punishment.Gainbridge - Andretti
They better invest in better talent behind the wheel, that's how I figure.How do you figure? To me, it sure seems like Spire is willing to invest, and they clearly have the resources to become a team that can compete for wins. And I think they have a pretty solid alliance with Hendrick

Yo Rodney. You can't keep Lajoie out of the wall.
