Love your videos!
If Burton continues to slump, who would the Wood Brothers go with in 2025?
I think Jeff Burton is still gonna be with them in 2025.
Either Todd Gilliland, or give Ty Majeski and Riley Herbst part-time shots.
Todd Gilliand or maybe Custer
Go back to Matty D.
@@darkshadowz7958I got a strong feeling Custer will be driving a bow tie affiliated car in 2025. SHR moving to Chevy
Kaz Grala has announced that he will attempt to qualify for the 2024 Daytona 500 with Front Row Motorsports.
the only way i see SHR putting those rumors about selling off charters and all that even with the lack of sponsorship is if they can manage to average top 15s or better across the 4 cars cause outside of harvick last year that team as a whole was horrible and it showed very clearly throughout the season
41 cars suspected to enter the 500 now. Would love to see your pick for who goes out!
Only 1 car witll go home right that would be Bj McLeod
Danica
Personally. I think Ford in general is going to be super good this year. The new redesign looks advantageous for Ford, especially from an aero perspective. So thats why I think Tony Stewart is speaking up so much this offseason — but time will tell.
I think Ford will struggle this year outside of rfk and Penske!
A do or die ultimatum from Tony Stewart should be taken VERY seriously. Just sayin’.
It’s INCREDIBLY HARD for drivers to “increase their value” given how polished they are required to be due to the nature of how sponsorships work and all. You say 1 dumb thing or accidentally forget to switch from you “public” account to your “private/burner” account, and you risk losing your entire career (see Larson and Gragson). We want these guys to be more public, and then the moment they act like normal people, laughing at things that may be offensive (we all laugh at jokes that other would consider offensive, let’s be honest) or say something that may be a little uncouth or offensive (see previous statement about jokes) and we instantly turn on them and put on our “holier than thou” attitudes, knowing full well we do the exact same things as they do. We all complain about the “snowflakes” of the world, yet we’re all a part of it. From Denny Hamlin posting a Family Guy clip to twitter and tagging Larson after Talladega to Bubba Wallace with the whole “noose” debacle. In both scenarios, half of the public is mad. So, I don’t blame the drivers for being way more reserved. You have to remember, back when Jimmie and Jeff were in their primes, the internet was in its infancy. The iPhone came out in 2007. Jeff Gordon had already won all 4 of his championships and Jimmie Johnson had won his first by then, and, let’s be real, social media didn’t really start to “blow-up” until what, 2012-2013? So, that’s why. I mean, I think we can all agree that Jimmie Johnson was far more reserved than Jeff Gordon was.
Deegan is facing a huge amount of pressure as well. 50 Camera’s watching her every move. She does have her Social Media to offset the Media insanity but that opens her up for another form of pressure. Deegan’s Crew Chief is going to be under the spotlight .
All Deegan has is social media she doesnt have any racing talent Nascar just wants to have a women racing
It’s time to admit that Hailee is just another Danica.
I get that less money for the drivers looks bad for the sport, but I’ve always thought that sport players and, in this case, drivers get paid way too much money and I really could care less how much even my favorite driver gets paid. Like, they’re famous they will always have more than enough money.
I don’t know if it’s the drivers or the sponsors but back in the 90’s you would see drivers in commercials for their sponsors all the time.This gave all three(nascar,teams,and sponsors)exposure that worked well for the sport……if you ask me that is why NASCAR has been in a decline and until the sponsors start getting more for their money again they won’t put more money in
Eric, i find it interesting when you say “it is not that hard to put yourself out there”. Imagine, if you would, being in a competitive situation with 39 other Nascar youtube channels, and there be a declared winner every week. points counting towards the playoffs, and being demonetized if you do not make the playoffs half way through the season. And at the end of the year, the “winner” this year gets your channel, and you get to start from scratch. You may feel differently. Or even better, picture Bailoney burger getting your “ride” because he will work for less?
If Matt dibenedetto had more sponsorship he would still be in the #21.
I think Brisco was doing good for being in the shr equipment he was in
Most offensive thing Eric has said is that RFK would totally miss the 2023 playoffs. 12:19
Harrison Burton has a ride because of his family and HOF dad, not his performance. Harrison will not be in the 21 come 2025, unless he can bring a ton of sponsorship, which would require his dad being heavily involved with the sponsors.
Briscoe had 9 wins the same year Harvick had 9 wins and the common factor is their cars had 70 pounds more downforce than everyone else.
To your point about putting yourself out there, Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin, and Brad keselowski all regularly put themselves out there and share their thoughts openly. All three of them have wildly different perspectives and talk about wildly different things but all of them aren’t afraid to share an opinion or say when a guy raced them dirty. Chastian has been wide open on track and shows you can do wild things and be celebrated. Chase Elliot even has opened up more and more lately(despite what his haters will claim). Larson is one of the most reserved and boring drivers in the garage and here he is talking about various things. It’s getting better but we need to get drivers comfortable on camera and comfortable with their sponsors. This year Chris buesher had a breakout season. He was awkward the first few times he’s been on camera. But he knows Brad supports him and he has strong sponsor support so he’s been putting himself out there and was far more comfortable on media day then he was just 12 months ago. Nascar needs to put people on camera more and there personalities will shine though
Does anyone know if Nascar actually approved the new Mustang body submitted by Ford or have there been alterations to it?
