Maybe the Smoke to Pro Stock scenario plays out?

Good for her. I'm sure she'll be excited.

It will interesting if Tony wins the countdown. No pressure Leah.

Excellent story as expected from BB!
So maybe TS goes to F/C with Matt?
I would like to see him race with Leah, but he has said all along that won't happen. Of course Richard has that Elite Top Fueler....?
By the time he retires, willing to bet he will have raced multiple categories and achieved legendary status, maybe even takes the 2025 T/F championship

Actually the best of the NASCAR Pro Stock drivers I watched was Clint Bowyer

Would love to see Tony in a race car next season but would not be a bit surprised to see him focus on the management of his team, not to mention all of the other businesses he already owns or is heavily involved in. That itself is more than a full time endeavor.

Tony says he's not done driving, and is now feeling comfortable in the nitro car. We'll see...

i believe that all day long, that tony is finally feeling comfortable in the car.
what a remarkable two years it's been for his team. he persevered with his CC, and it came around, and now he just won the 'regular season'.

welll the cc brought Leah within one round of championship in 2023. Curious how figuring out the weight again when she's back in the car!

I wouldn’t think it would be as hard to switch back to Leah; being that they have data from that time, compared to starting new with Tony. I believe they will have some/little discrepancies with the switch back. I have more of a question, of how Leah will handle (mentally) with the fact she has a young son? She seems to be a very strong woman/person, but would have to think that that would be in the “back of her mind”; which she has never had to deal with in the past.

Never been a big fan of Leah. I would rather see Tony remain in the car....
