Beta Motorcycles would probably follow her.

i'm not exactly sure what the capps/jcm racing tie-in is. i think it's at least hospitality? maybe more?
wonder if 2026 could look like a 4-car team? would be cool to see a multiple car team park rigs in pits in a square format, or something
different than just part of long line of haulers and awnings. (dsr used to park some rigs in U shape, so did worsham in CSK days)

Didn't I see a rumor somewhere suggesting Andretti might get involved? Or was that something else?
Capps/JCM tie in ? Did I miss something ?

ron has run a JCM decal on his car for two years now i think, and you will see joe on the starting line when ron runs.
i'm pretty sure the two companies do their hospitality together; share it, run it, own it together or something like that.
that hospitality company might even help other team/s with the same? not entirely sure about that.
in the pits, you will see napa FC and JCM TF'r book-ending the large hospitality area that was previously DSR.
I assume Maci (am I spelling that right?) - the other daughter - will drive the TA/FC. I am a big fan of that family. I make it a point to stop by their pit at the 2 Pomona races. Everyone chips in working on the car - especially the 2 daughters. Those two do not care if they get their fingernails dirty. The whole family seem like really good people.
Macie has stated she has no interest in driving the car. She happy turning the wrenches.
Well that's interesting. And surprising. Isn't Macie driving a Top Dragster?
Yes , at PRI interview she said that was fast enough for her. Never know she may change her mind or they may not even run the car.
Doug is still a young guy. Wouldn’t be surprised if he did the family Funny again.
With Maddi’s skills, car knowledge and personality plus being on a superstar team, doubt she would have the time to do the Funny also
She's not gonna be doing double duty. Her focus will be on the Top Fuel car and everything involved with that team.

Doug or Mike himself could get back in it. Plenty of talent, even from the old guys, in their pit.
