My pick christopher bell ended up 4th after starting 18th at Indianapolis
During the Olympics break, I’m glad that there’s a Nascar event happening in Brasil, and will have Suarez in the race as the invited driver and its also post wedding. Speaking of which I wonder if he would give Trackhouse their 2nd Nascar International win
Let’s just hope the 99 can finish in the top 10. He has been garbage most the season and Brazil might expose him even more.
Nobody asked
@Crussell04 agreed, this isn’t about performance issues but about bringing attention to Nascar International
We really had Ryan Preece replace Cole Custer in the 41, only for him to now replace Preece next season. Really an ironic Silly Season
Reminds me of Texas and North Wilkesboro.

This comment deserves to be the one used for “Out of The Crowd” section of his video
@@BraydenBunch58 shows it is the car a bit.
No idea what is Ryan Preece’s story.
cole custer is announced to the haas 41. how will you respond ryan preece?
preece: *spins out and stalls in OT*
Apparently he ran out
Preece belongs on the Shanghai sharks
Ran out of talent @@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT
@@c.d.8975 of gas.
Also he is talented in Modifieds, Trucks, and Xfinity. But I feel like he’s one of those drivers that can’t adapt in Cup. And it’s a shame that his full-time Cup career is a huge struggle.
Personally, I hope he does Xfinity.
Joe Custer translated: Reliy is gone next year and we are flat broke
Lmao. Haas is far from broke but the team did lose almost a billion in sponsorship because of Stewart
Haas Factory Team should have been the 00
But this is a good way for the Custer 41 merch that sold years back to be relevant. That’s the only reason I can imagine for it to be the 41
Hass picks the #41
@@ReggieFairfieldI don’t think so, Custer runs his entire career with the 00 (I remember him at the Trucks), and 0 is the iconic number in HAAS before Stewart era, also the 41 just started with Kurt Busch in 2014.
I could be wrong, but 41 is more associated with Kurt than Custer, Preece and Suarez
@@NexXxuactually the 41 started with Chip Ganassi years before shr!
@@miketwotwentyyes the number was used previously by CGR, but in terms of SHR it only began in 2014. they should create their own identity rather than the current and soon to be defunct SHR
Adding Herbst to the Toyota family puts all the Monster drivers (Gibbs, Reddick, and Herbst) under the same manufacturer, and essentially in the same team. I’ve got to imagine Monster would like that arrangement, would make everything a lot easier
The paint scheme confusion will be even worse but it makes perfect sense lol
@@moddimthey should make one or two of the drivers run a different flavor of monster car full time.
Good point. I see the connection
@@craigstephenson7676 true, I was thinking if LMC was opening a 3rd charter they could have a monster driver in each Toyota team
I wish haas factory team would reminder the 41 to the 00 like that number fits Custer great
That heim vs hocevar event is a product of the championship nascar created.
I wonder if Harrison Burton is willing to go back down to Xfinity like Custer and Nemechek did with HFT and run one of those cars the next few years.
It’s the only series he’s ever run well in
I’d rather confront a guy after a race with an adult conversation than have to do it over phone or text. I don’t think it matters it was in front of the camera.
Exactly and why would the drivers care if it is front of the camera.
An adult conversation for something so minor would’ve come from within. Heim had no reason to be THAT pissed.
I was at the race. Didn’t see the initial rub but definitely saw Heim take swipes at Eckes under the yellow.
Heim will either mature and become great, or his temper will ruin him. Fans are already displeased by his behavior. He embarrassed his sponsors and team at Phoenix last year. Just needs to mature as he gains experience and he’ll definitely become quite a star.
@IndianaSimracer77 I agree that he has the potential to mature and manage the tempers better, regardless of how angry he was. Most young drivers overreact. At least he didn’t throw a punch or hook him this time lol. That’s where (IMO) sponsors start getting pissed.
My overall point is that call/text messages make it feel similar to “breaking up with your girlfriend on the phone”. Better face-to-face.
How is talking to another driver immediately after a race about an incident a concern for Corey Heim, plenty of drivers do it its just that this time its between the top two contenders so of course there would be cameras. Oh no he made people more interested in the truck series because he was mad and wanted to talk to the guy who cut down his tire. Maybe we should be criticizing Christian Eckes instead for causing the incident in the first place.
yeah its a weird take imo. i hate it when guys chirp on other guys maturity in these situations like theyve ever even been remotely in the same situation.
Riley was impressive on Saturday, it was really fun to watch!
Put Ty Majeski in the haas xfinity car. Would be better than deegan, and would stay in a ford.
I like this take.
He’s definitely better than Hailie Deegan.
Stuff like deegan getting bailed out because of money is why i have been gravitating more towards professional dirt track racing, way more fun racing and less pay to play
Agreed.
People bringing up ARCA as some sort of pro deegan argument just shows how clueless some nascar fans are. There’s no meaningful competition in ARCA
There’s really not a whole lot of competition in the nascar truck series at this point either
Talent level in nascar is headed off a cliff in general deegan is just an extreme example.
