In reply to cadillacjohn1994. @Kadin Smith Roush is coming back to Xfinity from what I’ve heard. So there’s hope for those people and more yet.

2 things to think about with Zane going to Trackhouse:
1. If Zane goes in-house to Trackhouse in 2025, couldn’t they just acquire that charter from Spire?
2. Trackhouse will need to still get another charter for SVG. If they can’t get one, where does SVG go?

In reply to cadillacjohn1994. Who does Ford even have now. Deegan? She has a lot of work to do. Maybe Majeski, but IDK. Ford doesn't even have any good development programs in Xfinity really. They need help.

I really want to see spire do good. I feel like Lajoie has good potential

Wish Zane could’ve gotten the #21 for a few years and then went to the #2. I think he would’ve done well at Penske.

Justin Marks also said during the press conference that the technical alliance is only for Zane’s car, not all of spire.

I was a little sad to see Matt & BJ sell their charter but really happy for Trackhouse. I feel this is an amazing building opportunity for Spire with LaJoie and Smith.

A few things.
Hamlin can be as fast as he wants now but it doesn’t mean much til he proves he can actually win the Championship and not choke it away.
Trackhouse is going to be what SHR was a few years ago soon. Also glad for Zane Smith.

I wonder if after next year Spire will keep the charter or if they have a deal with Trackhouse for them to acquire the charter from them after next season?

spire next year sounds like a solid team which is definitely interesting

In reply to TacoLord94. My guess is it will be a driver who brings some sponsorship. I doubt there's anyone who will bring Smithfield-levels of cash though.
