Hailie Deegan Truck Series Future Takes Bad Turn as She Hits Ugly Career Low in 2023

  • Опубликовано: 8 июл 2023
  • Many thought the 2023 NASCAR Truck Series season would be Hailie Deegan's breakout year because it would be her first with a legitimate championship contender at ThorSport Racing. Now 14 races in and just a couple from the playoffs, it's turned out to be anything but that.
    The 21-year-old has struggled for much of the season. If you listen to the team radio, it's because she's not being aggressive enough and is getting pushed around by other drivers - a problem that has dogged her throughout her career.
    This year that has continued, but the driver has also committed her share of mistakes, especially lately. All of it combined has resulted in the driver currently finding herself in the worst stretch of her career, where she hasn't finished better than 20th in six consecutive races and is lower in the season points standings than five of the six rookie drivers, including Taylor Gray, who has run three fewer races.

    3:45 photo reminds me of one of her RUclips videos I watched where the crew chief was staring down her boyfriend like he absolutely despised him. I have to imagine it gets old having him right on top of her 24/7. In one video he was even trying to tell crew members what repair the car needed by interrupting the guy mid sentence. He's always got a camera stuck in someone's face. You can tell he's a really good kid, I just feel like it serves mostly as a distraction to what they are trying to accomplish. He should just sit on the box and watch the race like the rest of the wives.

      Her dad’s getting her into NASCAR reminds me of what Harvick said about Dillon boys being born with the silver spoon. If not for « Papa » Richard Childress they wouldn’t have gotten any further then go-karts. As far as more deserving drivers, consider her Truck career: 0 wins, 1 top 5, 6 top 10’s, 2 laps led. When Ford agreed to sponsor Gilliland Racing in 2022, it was with the condition that she wouldn’t be part of the team. But hey, every race she is holding court at her hauler wth more social media reps than any other driver. It may be apparent that I am not a Miss Deegan fan.

    Imagine going from the one that would potentially replace Kevin Harvick 4 years ago, to turning into the Danica Patrick of the truck series and potentially being out of the sport by the end of the year now.
    Deegan outside of a mediocre West Series has never been impressive. Couldn’t even win a race in the most mediocre ARCA class. And everyone after her first truck start was like “she’s wasting her time in ARCA! She’ll learn in trucks!” Now 3 years later the same crowd is going “she did good in one xfinity race last year! Put her in an Xfinity car!” after having an EMBARRASSING resume in the truck series in winning equipment plus blaming the entire truck series field on her awful driving this season. When you have 4 top 10s in 3 seasons you have NO ROOM for excuses. I knew after Las Vegas it would be a rough season, but she’s doing even WORSE than I expected since. Four straight finishes outside the top 20 in Thorsport equipment is UNACCEPTABLE and to make matters worse, the rest of her teammates are ALL in the chase with multiple top 10s on the year. Deegan on the other hand is behind FIVE rookies in points! One of them missing the first 3 races due to him being below the age of 18! If she can’t even perform in the truck series in winning equipment what makes people think Deegan will do any better in Xfinity? I know people will spew out this stupid argument “BUT HARRISON BURTON SUCKED IN TRUCKS AND WAS GOID IN XFINITY!” One problem with that argument, Harrison was gifted a chase spot multiple times on a silver platter in 2019 and proceeded to choke in every imaginable way. In Xfinity, he was only relevant for one season where half of his wins came from Gragson choking, and finished behind Brandon Jones in points in both seasons. Yes, the same Brandon Jones that’s scored a whopping THREE times this season in the car that won 8 times last year! And not to mention Harrison went WINLESS last season and see how well that’s translated to the cup series. Deegan is not it. I’m sorry but but if the Deegan simps only argument for blaming Deegan’s terrible driving on the entire truck series field you know you’re driver is terrible. More likely to be on OnlyFans next year. Total waste of time and money.

But then some feel she needs to step aside and watch from the grandstands where all of her haters are.

    That 13 truck is a bit odd. That team (the people on it) is actually relatively new I think. I understand that the crew chief is a champion, but the #13 team at ThorSport just hasn't done very much in the last few years. I mean they were barely on the track in 2022 from what I've read. And the only time I really remember them in 2021 was that horrific crash at Charlotte when Johnny Sauter was driving. Though the point is that the #13 team hasn't even run a full season since 2021. And when it comes to race teams, that actually explains quite the lack of performance out of that car. Their notebook literally has nothing in it since the team ran 4 races in 2022.

Maybe, maybe not, but crew members are being paid for a job, do your job to the best of your ability, be responsible for your efforts.

      @@patersonplankrdwouldn’t call it a promotion or demotion. Xfinity/Truck racing are so different to the point where drivers are skipping either series Ex. Ty Gibbs/Todd Gilliland and potentially Carson Hocevar/Zane Smith. Harrison Burton is an example of drivers who haven’t done well in Trucks then doing great in Xfinity. I’m not a Deegan fan but we should give her a year in Xfinity then I think that would be a good way to rate her.

      @@ic3man I agree give her one more year in Xfinity. She is Still Young and has plenty of sponsors and that's where she wants to be. I feel like ford will give her one more year.

    The fan boys and haters both care about her racing more than she does. I guarantee she does 0 film study and the bare minimum sim work. Honestly if they through her BF in the truck for the last few races I would bet the results would improve.

    I’m not necessarily a fan or not, but she just started circle track racing recently, as to the boys all starting in quarter midgets at age 5.

      @d.stanley6328, there are no circle tracks in NASCAR. FYI, she's been with NASCAR since 2016. In motorsports racing since age 7.

    As long as there is money behind her... And it seems like Ford is more than willing to keep investing, she will have a ride.
    The level of talent to compete with the best drivers isn't there, but the funding is.
