Well if this racing stuff doesn't work out he might be able to be a jockey. Lol

I would think something would already be in the works. She obviously has talent unlike any female driver ever in NASCAR. She would no doubt be a fan favorite.I think Deegan is gonna be a big deal. If NASCAR had any brains, they'd find a way to sneak her into an Xfinity seat and or even a NASCAR ride sooner than later.
NASCAR needs something to get them by all that anti-gun, BLM, woke that lost them nearly all of their fans. Deegan could be the beginning of that.
She’s on Ford’s development team, so she’ll keep getting pushed. She is part of the nascar diversity push, so her advancement will be part of the “woke” program that gave us Bubba Wallace and Daniel Suarez. In contrast, though, she seems to actually have talent at driving, and could actually be a contender, unlike Crashica Patrick.I would think something would already be in the works.

EDIT: She's running the full truck schedule this year.

Maybe it's just me wanting it to be different, but the little I have seen of Deegan's content doesn't necessarily point to "woke."
NASCAR driver Hailie Deegan apologizes for using slur during iRacing event
This isn't the first time controversy has surrounded an iRacing livestreamwww.cbssports.com
Same with her parents...
Well you have to remember NASCAR as on organization or sanctioning body is pushing for diversity and are buying into the wokism BS. However, many individual team owners are still more interested in talent, marketability and results on the track. She has some real talent and she is certainly marketable.Sorry if I gave the wrong impression. I wasn’t trying to imply SHE was…I was just saying nascar ain’t exactly changing their tune, they’re still full on in the diversity hustle. No, she seems to be pretty center to right…actually surprised they’re still pushing her, to be honest.
You hit the nail on the head. NASCAR has their drive to diversity program, as far back as Juan Pablo Montoya, they realized he didn’t bring any attention and went to Danica, they found out she sucked and didn’t bring enough eyes so went to bubba. Now they’re realizing he sucks and now that the BLM bs has blown over they’re left with the mess they created. Their fan base was overwhelmingly conservative, and they pushed them away in hopes of gaining population filled city areas to boost their ratings... now they have neither. Deegan is being pushed because she has conservative roots, and she’s a female... this is nascars chance to give fans a conservative to pull for and draw them back in. They were leaving long before the wokeness started tho, that just put the nail in the coffin. The stage racing, the playoffs, the next gen cars, etc. it’s not even racing anymore. Clint bowyer has a good interview on dale jr download about it.Sorry if I gave the wrong impression.

To be fair, SRX is more like IROC in that the cars are supposed to be cookie cutter. But, they are all prepared by the same group, so no “rich” teams vs. “poor” teams in it. Stewart seems to know what is missing from the “new“ NASCAR and is trying his darndest to give it to the old time fans. Kind of looking forward to Bill vs Chase this weekend.the cookie cutter bs
Kind of proves the saying going around the last few years…”get woke, go broke”. I haven’t watched a race since noosegate…The anti-gun, BLM, woke BS was all NASCAR bowing to "public pressure" generated by the liberal mob through social media.
Like a lot if other business, NASCAR was scared less to be branded as racist, nazi supremacists.
I think a lot the lefty crowd behind all of this bullying is not passing the sunshine test after a lot of exposure.
Especially after the scamdemic, (not to mention the stolen election,) NASCAR is waking up to find their fanbase is decimated.
I'm sure there are folks inside of NASCAR seeing this. How can they not?
...........................
To circle back, Tony Stewart is a racing genius and has effectively navigated the woke waters thus far.
That’s gonna be awesome, for them and the fans. Definitely a moment you know they’ll both cherish. I bet they race each other harder than they do anyone else out thereKind of looking forward to Bill vs Chase this weekend.
You know, I really haven't either, but I hadn't really thought of it. Guess I just lost interest. I remember looking forward to Saturday and Sunday for races. Now I've not even missed it. And it's nothing I did out of protest or whatever. I just lost interest.Kind of proves the saying going around the last few years…”get woke, go broke”. I haven’t watched a race since noosegate…
I watched a little of the Bristol dirt. Pretty much the last stage and that was it.Kind of proves the saying going around the last few years…”get woke, go broke”. I haven’t watched a race since noosegate…
I used to love to watch the NASCAR Bristol races before they "fixed" the track. Once they did that, they took away all the excitement of "rubbin' and racin'". That was the beginning of the end for me I think. And that was before all the SJW crap.I watched a little of the Bristol dirt. Pretty much the last stage and that was it.
Exactly. Even before the bs the past year, I wasn’t watching every weekend like I used to. If I was camping I had a radio to listen. When they brought the stage racing I kinda lost interest. Even before then it was getting boring, but that killed the racing. I still like to see where a few guys finished, but I don’t care to spend 3 hours watching anymore.I used to love to watch the NASCAR Bristol races before they "fixed" the track.
