You should have heard Shane talking about his experiences in America so far on an Australian Ytube, ...gushing with appreciation of all that's been done for him as it has so far, fans and media as well.
Love me some svg!
Have a link to it? I would like to listen.
I 2nd the request for a link because I was not aware of an Australian specific RUclips. Am I missing out on a whole lot of other RUclipss? If you have a link to this interview, I'd appreciate your posting.
Idk why you think it's gonna take time for him to adapt to the cup car on road courses. Both the cars at indy road course and cota had mechanical issues. You can't really make judgements based off those results. I rewatched cota yesterday and he was easily moving up the field until 1st gear disappeared
Because seat time is important. Allmendinger has had those same issues in his cup car and produced better results. It’s not a knock. Kaulig has issues but if you are talking about the INDY Road Course that was a trackhouse car. Issues happen. SVG has struggled on restarts in both series. These are things that will get better with seat time.
@zack Strong point. Shane has a pattern of figuring it out by the last 3rd of the race as he did in his first race. It took him less then 70 laps to get the lead. His lap times before he got to the lead were the fastest in the field & it was his first time ever. We are about to see Shane return to these tracks & we pretty much know he is going to shine, as he dose.
Supercars don't do rolling restarts side by side and SVG said there was some driver games in restarts...
This is something I didn’t know and certainly helps me understand why there are struggles there. He’s either not aggressive enough or WAY to aggressive. I love his rivalry with Austin. But he does have to be careful and not build up to much of a reputation. That can carry over for years
SVG is more comfortable in the Cup car. Many ‘experts’ said he’d struggle in the Xfinity car on road courses.
On a previous post I said I expect Kaulig to sell one charter to Trackhouse and how the 25 season lays out from there. However, let’s say TH gets its third charter from Stewart-Haas so Kaulig has 2 seats to fill. First, we need to talk about what this year has been; people want to call it a “rebuilding year”, from the outside looking in it seems like a, “figure out how to keep the doors open”, kind of year. Matt Kaulig clearly has a passion for racing, but it is not how he pays his bills. Matt makes his living from business outside of racing, so in the end this race team is just a hobby, all be it a very large and expensive hobby, but still just a hobby. Matt might have a passion for racing, but it must make financial sense. I think we all know the only reason AJ isn’t driving Cup this year was because of money, what needs to happen between the 24 season and the 25 season to change that? (That is the biggest reason why I think they sell a charter to TH)
There is no way SVG isn’t in the 3rd TH Cup car, so TH has to find a seat for Zane. I hope AJ is in the 16 cup car next year. If Justin and Matt put Zane in the 31 car funded by TH that would free up Matts money (or the money he influences) to support AJ in the 16 car. Have all 5 cup cars built out at the Trackhouse garage. This would let TH keep a closer eye on the development of Zane and AJ would get a chance to get real tier one support (or as close as anyone outside of HMS can get from Chevy). This would allow Chris Rice to focus on the Xfinity program and use whatever resource that gets freed up by the move of the Cup cars to the TH garage to improve the Xfinity program (or whatever it is called next year). Also, not having to fund a second cup car will allow that funding to support the Xfinity program. I don’t have any hard opinions on who gets the Xfinity rides, but with funding being less of a pressure the, “Driver Skill vs Sponsorship” calculation should swing more to the skill side.
This plan would let TH function like a 5 car team and all the advantages that would bring (and still follow the 3 car charter requirement) it would let Matt follow his passion and keep his hobby. Matt would still have 2 cars racing on Sunday, AJ would be in the best equipment he has had in years. AJ would have a realistic chance to win on Sunday, Chris Rice get a chance to build a good B series program that TH can use and fund for driver development.
As for going to Ford, you are absolutely right, Ford needs teams and drivers, I can see them making some good offers, but they cannot do it at the expense of RFK and Penske. The only way I see Kaulig moving to Ford is if Trackhouse or RCR move over as a Teir one team, I can see Kaulig following one of them as part of an alliance.
Will these are my thoughts on it all anyway.
Thank you so much for the detailed insight and the dedication to communication.
I don’t think a charter will be sold from Kaulig simply due to market value atm.
AJ is likely going back to cup next year is our guess. Cirkul seems to be supporting him more and Celsius has upped their support.
This is an excellent comment Steve and I agree with you on these points. The best action forward is to align closer with TH and become a 5 car team. Use The Xfinity program to utilize the pipeline of talent for TH and Kaulig and go from there. It seems like the right play but we will see if the teams agree with that direction.
Isn't the Kaulig shop part of the RCR Campus? ie they're on RCR land, using RCR facilities & resources. They might have to find a new shop if they switch to Ford.
Well part of that is right. Their shops are located on RCR’s Campus. Everything else is owned by Kaulig.
@@KauligNation Driving Simulator? I've heard Shane say he's 'met' Austin Hill at the simulator.
Also, I thought RCR fabricate the Xfinity cars for Kaulig - and do repairs if a car needs to go back on a jig.
@@powder4360 The driving Sim is actually located at Hendrick Motorsports and all Chevy teams share it. Kaulig fabs their own cars for both series. While the property they own is on the RCR campus. Kaulig owns the buildings out right.
Daniel ran p2 last night. Takes care of his equipment. Good option.
Yes he did! Very impressive run Last night! I’m starting get very excited about this kid!
🙏
Shalom from Aotearoa New Zealand . Go SVG. Check out Kiwis in Indie The two Scotties and there will be a new fulltime entrant to F1 in Liam Lawson.
They keep talking about something big for next year. Something from Ohio. When I think Ohio I think Meyershank and sirusXM. Maybe sirusXM comes onboard
I didn’t hear this something from Ohio bit… when was this?
We heard a lot of talk last year about new partners and steps forward and it never materialized and made Chris Rice look pretty bad
Mayer Shank Racing is also out of Ohio. They have huge support from Serius XM and Auto Nation. Would love to see some cross partnerships
Probably the golf tournament that Kaulig hosts lol
Kaulig to Ford would be great! Ford needs 1 more Cup team and they need to rebuild their lower series drivers. I've heard Toyota just signed a kid who is 12. Ford doesn't need to sign that young, but Ford need to have young prospects.
Zane Smith or Sam Mayer would be good young drivers for cup. Matt keep saying this year is a down year to prepare for 2025.
I would take anything they say with a heavy grain of salt if you listened to Chris rice in the media last year. I’m at a point where it’s prove it and I’ll believe it .
I'm thinking Nascar in general is in for a big shock which will be Josh Berry, Rodney Childers and most of the 4 team heading to Kaulig to lead the teams cup program. To even think of Kaulig going to Ford is the most ridiculous discussion ever so long as Kaulig Racing is based on RCR property with ECR building Cheverolet engines across the road, Ford would never let that happen and anyone who even thinks otherwise is an idiot!
The best oval stock car racers in the world are in America. That's it.
Ist off, Ford didn't lose 3 of the 4 SHR charters. One charter went to FRM. Joe Custer has already said that Haas is staying with Ford because of the Xfinity program. So that's 2 of the 4 staying with Ford. One to Trackhouse (Chevy) & one to Denny Hamlin's Cup team( Toyota).
Ford wanted another entire team in its fold is the point.
Haas will be a shell of its former self and already is
i would love to have more Ford teams!
I feel like the f bombs are AJ being AJ. He’s an emotional person. Wears his head on his sleeve.
This is bang on! Kaulig needs some honesty at this point. Too many rose coloured glasses the last little while.
What are your thoughts on AJ's F bombs dropped on live TV? This was done more then once. The timeline seems to indicate a determining factor & extremely unfortunately AJ not getting full time in cup, even though he could get the team wins & a playoff stop. It goes without saying no sponsor wants that identity.
I think it’s honesty and someone on Kaulig needed to step forward. Guys swear all the time. From what we know Celsius is a major supporter of AJ and now Cirkul who has only been sponsoring Hemric is moving some of their support to AJ. Kaulig needs some accountability. AJ is it.
@@blacklisterd They lost 7 spots on a pit stop….. you would have “beep” my mic to.
If Honda comes in I hope we change to honda
That would be cool but years away at earliest
I would rather see Mercedes or BMW
No no no, I will sulk if I see SVG in a bloody FORD! I would forgive him if he got in a Toyota. But a Ford? No bloody way man!
I know how you feel. I hate Ford!
@horsefly1020 It's how we are in New Zealand and Australia. I've followed Holden and Holden drivers since the 80s then had to start following Chev when GM shut Holden down. SVG drove a Ford many years ago but I didn't follow him until he got in a Holden. Scotty Mac was probably the best Supercars driver ever. I liked him when he was in a Volvo but when he started driving Ford's he became the enemy.
Ty has allows been better than Austin and never had the equipment to prove it. Noah with bass pro shots would be great. Austin Hill… nah..
Mark my words. SVG will get wrecked next weekend. Just my view.
SVG is great on road courses. He hasn’t had any success on ovals. Yes he’s still learning but unfortunately he’s still very far behind almost all the other drivers who have much more oval experience. I see him as a road course specialist only in the future.
@@lloydbarnes7847 I don’t know. Today SVG came in 15th and has a season avg of 15 for a finish. What’s he had, 13 Xfinity ovals, one in truck and one in ARCA…. A 15 finishing average isn’t to bad.
@@stevemansfield3449 I hear you but if you average 15 in lower levels of completion where does that put you in cup? I like SVG I’m just a realist and even Dale Jr said recently that on ovals he’s still pretty far off. People like him and that might help with sponsorship maybe Outback Steakhouse will chip in lol.
@@lloydbarnes7847 is he as good as the guys that have been driving ovals their whole lives- absolutely not. But after only half a season and he is getting mid pack finishes that is pretty impressive. But I suspect that by the end of the 25 season he’ll be getting solid mid pack finishes on the ovals, and he’ll always be a threat to win on the road courses. I honestly think SVG is ahead of expectations. But hey, that is just my opinion lol
You expect a driver who has never even seen any of these oval tracks before, to be constantly running in the Top 5? At some of these tracks Shane has had no laps, prior to the race, as the practice and qualifying sessions have been cancelled. For a non oval racer to have ten top 15 finishes in their rookie season is a great achievement.
No disrespect, but people seem to forget SVG is racing and beating guys who have been raised on ovals. He is consistently in the mix and improving, with only a dozen or so oval races to his name... ever! I fail to understand how you could say he will only be a road course specialist.
