The Official 2024-25 NASCAR Offseason Discussion Thread

Yeah I won’t have much hope this season. I can see us getting to 14 at the most. But yeah with teams getting better, and more good drivers being spread around to even help those teams, it’s only a matter of time.

14 is about what I'm thinking. Odds of a new winner at Daytona seem pretty good since it's a toss-up. Outside of that, I think we'll see some more repeat winners.

Hopefully this one sticks for Gragson.

Childers sounded so determined to want to help Berry find success and so I wanted to see Childers join Berry at Wood Brothers but maybe he can help Spire move up to having a more competitive ride.

Trucks, Xfinity and Cup races this weekend AND the cup race is actually earlier than it has been lately. I like Pocono. So hopefully the races are good.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

the wild thing is, I see plenty of drivers who I can see getting a win in these next 6 who haven’t won yet.

Ross
Truex
Gibbs
Busch
Berry

Then as you mentioned you have Daytona where someone like Bubba, McDowell, Buescher, Briscoe, hell even Austin Dillon lol could win. That one being such a wild card could really shake things up.

I respect the loyalty. I don’t see how ya do it. He makes himself about as likable as Denny without any of the stats to back it up lol

Bubba fan's are the 2024 equivalent of the leave Britney alone dude.

Hey Come on now! If that was the case, I wouldn’t have said what he did was uncalled for and would have defended the hell out of it.

That's actually a really solid list. Hell, I'd add Gragson to it. He's found some speed lately, so he may be able to put something together.

Yeah that’s another one who can pull it off also. It’s going to be interesting to see who can punch their ticket these next few weeks.

So, Zane Smith's name has now been linked to the third FRM seat. He drove some for them last year and it looks like he's a man without a team after this season unless they TH loans him out again. Sam Mayer is still in the mix. Pockrass also reporting Christian Eckes is a possibility.

Yeah you seem fair but you ever go on reditt it's like a cult even the slightest criticism of him "you are just a racist that can't handle a black person in Nascar".

Which that site is a cesspool anyway and i left so not surprised.

Oh yeah, Reddit sucks it’s ridiculous how folks act there 100%. Like every driver can be criticized. Like I’m sure they are some people who don’t like him because of his skin color, but it’s not everyone.

 

[Tommy Bedlam]

Pockrass reporting that the third FRM car is Sam Mayers ride. Just saw the Brakehard video about it.

Truck race has 6 laps to go.. I had no clue that it started so early...

Thanks for the reminder. I immediately switched it to the race.

Eckes almost got spun out.
