It’s easy to forget some of these guys do have prior Cup experience (howbeit in the previous generation car). I think JHN is ready for the #42 ride.

In reply to Bear Marsh. @Adrian My question as well. Underperformed in Xfinity, was never a top tier driver

I hope Harrison Burton takes a big step forward this year. I think that this year, whilst statistically not much better, has seen some good progress for Harrison. He has been overall more competitive, he has had some good runs, and he is building. If he can get a top 20 next year in the championship I would call that a very good year

A year ago I said that Gragson would have a bad time in the 42 due to the 42 Team in house issues and took a beating by my fellow YT Armchair Crew Chiefs. Welp. here we go again. It wasn’t a good guess on my part, it was my recollection of the history of the 42 team ever since Kyle Petty retired from racing. KP had good Petty equipment and great Petty personnel. He ran competitively and won some prestige Cup races. That team has always been a 2nd or 3rd tier team since then.

I really hope the best for JHN. He is a good driver. But until whoever is in charge of Legacy spends the money to fix the quality in personnel, they will just remain a 2nd/3rd tier team no matter who is sitting in the car. Allegedly every team is using the same parts in these Next Gen erector set race cars, so in theory every driver should be in a winning capable car.

Maybe the switch to Toyota will help them put into place the quality help they need to give JHN a car worthy of winning. Guess we’ll find out next season.

In reply to IanPerez2000. @The Starlight Alchemist things just keep adding up in terms of what they have in common on track

I couldn’t be any happier for JHN & Harrison Burton
