  1. Penciling in dumpster fire for April 2024
  2. A little late, but Austin Hill is staying with RCR on a multi-year extension. He'll return to XFINITY in the 21 full-time again next year. That will end the Hill to Kaulig rumors that sprung up over the last month.
  3. My favorite part of these is how they shoe-horned the military salute with the BFBS.
  4. Bob Pockrass tweeted out that Front Row has exercised their options on both McDowell and Gilliland for Cup next year. Team was interested in a third cup for Zane Smith, but in the end they decided they didn't want to start over with another rookie. Zane Smith is free to look elsewhere.
  5. Most likely a formality as far as hashing out contract details + sponsorships that Noah brought to the team (Wendy's). Bianchi doesn't make things up and is pretty well respected in the garage. He's on record saying that he doesn't report on anything unless he's 99% confident in his sources.
  6. You'd have 10 cents, but that's 10 more cents than you should have.
  7. Legacy Motorsports and Noah Gragson have parted ways, according to Jordan Bianchi. Mike Rockenfeller will be in the 42 for Indy Road Course and Watkins Glen.
  8. They really do! I could take or leave Keselowski as a driver, but he has turned things around at RFK. As someone who grew up watching NASCAR and then got out of it in the early 2010s, I was shocked when I got back into it a few years ago and Roush was only fielding two cars. I'm glad to see them bringing consistency to both teams and hope they continue to find future success. I would really like to see them field an XFINITY team again.
  9. This image was posted on Reddit. Sounds like the Bengals are trying to ditch the color rush jerseys in favor of their new away jerseys to pair with the white helmets.
  10. Noah Gragson has been suspended indefinitely by Legacy Motorsports, likely the fallout of Noah liking an insensitive meme on social media. Josh Berry will be in the 42 this weekend.
  11. I completely agree with you. It's a lot more fun when the 21 Wood Brothers car is a wild card. I think Burton's saving grace for himself is that DEX Imaging partnership. The Ford pipeline is just not that great. Right now, the only full-time Ford guys in XFINITY are the Stewart-Haas guys. Even Burton was part of the TDR program before making the jump over to Penske. I was holding out hope that Penske would try to buy out Zane Smith from Front Row because I think he'd be a great fit for the 21 team. Maybe Custer? But to your point, with the Penske partnership, they're getting fourth best equipment and crew & if the driver isn't excelling, they're just not going to overcome that.
  12. Niece Motorsports has announced that Shane Van Gisbergen will be racing for them next weekend at IRP.
  13. I think Gragson being out is more to do with Toyota than it does with Legacy themselves. Gragson was previously in the Toyota pipeline, driving for KBM and a few JGR XFINITY starts. Not sure what exactly happened, if he wasn't specifically a TDR, but he made the jump to JRM in 2019. It also doesn't help that he's had a pretty public feud with Ty Gibbs. My guess is Toyota wants Nemechek in Cup and Legacy is the fall back if Truex doesn't retire. I heard SVG is a GM guy, so I don't see him going to SHR. I could see it being Kaulig and Gisbergen can learn a lot from Allmendinger before he decides to hang it up. What's interesting is the DBC guys mentioned that there's going to be two seats open for JRM next year. We know Berry is one of them. The rumor was Brandon Jones was out after one year, but supposedly he is returning. So that leads to it being either Mayer or Allgaier
  14. Jordan Bianchi tweeted out the rumors that he's hearing in regards to the 2024 season They include: - MTJ status is still up in the air for 2024 - If he doesn't return, John Hunter Nemechek is the contigency plan - Denny will be back with JGR in 2024, just a matter of when the deal is done - Hocevar has been linked to several Cup and XFinity teams. He's favored to replace Ty Dillon in the 77 Spire Chevy - SHR sources believe there's a good chance that Almirola retires -McDowell and Zane Smith are rumor to replace him, but if Smithfield leaves as sponsor, they most likely will go with a driver that brings funding - Kaulig has 4 different candidates to take over the 31 with Austin Hill being the favorite - Hill has multiple offers and is 50/50 on whether he will move to Cup or stay in Xfinity for another year. - Harrison Burton is expected to return to the 21 - SVG is believed to be coming the NASCAR full-time in 2024, Trackhouse and at least one other team are favored to get him - Legacy could be replacing Gragson with Nemechek next year - He gets into Gragson's underperformance not being his fault i.e. rookie, struggling team. But, he mentions sometimes the driver and team just don't mesh well.
  15. And it sounds like Hocevar might be jumping XFINITY and going straight to Cup.
