Here is the thing about "fans have demanded it" Fans asked for more road courses, more short tracks a dirt track and fewer 1.5 mile tracks. Look how those same fans reacted when they got it
I'd say, if they DO increase the field and add 3 charters, here's how I'd predict them to go... - One charter for 23XI, and with it nabbing either Erik Jones or John Hunter Nemechek from LMC, allowing them to bring up another driver from the Toyota stable in a lower series...perhaps bringing someone like Ryan Truex back to cup with an eventual JGR seat waiting for him if he performs well enough there. - One charter for Trackhouse, allowing them to move Zane Smith into the main team roster, and allowing SVG to move to Cup in that third Spire entry that's essentially a Trackhouse car under the Spire banner and charter. - One charter for RFK, allowing them to bring up a lower series Ford driver like Riley Herbst (because we all know that if Cole Custer goes back to Cup, it's going to be at SHR, not somewhere else) or maybe even someone like Ty Majeski (who ran for Roush in Xfinity previously). Both would bring sponsorship and talent, and honestly...I really think a Road Ranger paint scheme would look epic with RFK's scheme styling with the chrome numbers and such. This would likely be my boldest charter prediction of the three, as the other two seem super likely if it was to happen...especially the Trackhouse one.
Three of my boldest predictions are that NASCAR decides to change the points format back into a season-long title run, they get rid of the charter system for good, allowing only the fastest 43 to make it into the show, and that we go the full distance of every race without any overtimes, whether we finish under caution or not (and they let them race back to the line).
@@DoglegMediaMattwell okay Daytona I could see they avoid the big one or big oneS (plural) and steal RWR or possibly pulling a 2021 McDowell and the leaders wreck a win that’s I can see that but explain the Coke 600
Corey lajoie will win 2-3 races next year. Spire has made a lot of big moves. I think he will win an Atlanta races maybe another superspeedway, and possibly Bristol
For your number 6 prediction, the three teams i can think of are Trackhouse Racing with a new number (Project 91 stays part-time), RFK with a potential revival of either 26 or 97 (Kaulig nabbed the 16 previously fielded as Greg Biffle's entry while Trackhouse has Carl's 99), and JR Motorsports reviving Junior's old Hendrick number 88
Trackhouse - 97 (SVG's number in Supercars), RFK - 60 (David Ragan will be in this car for Daytona), and if JRM goes cup, I don't know what number they would use besides 88.
@@pok30306 Of the six total numbers JRM has used in Xfinity competition, only 88 is currently available (Trackhouse has 1, Spire fields 7, Childress has 8, and Hendrick fields both 5 and 9)
My 10 Bold predictions 1) The Daytona 500 will not have a full field of 40 cars and will make Jim France hold back even more about making the charters permanent 2) Nascar will buy COTA, forcing F1 to work with them to keep the F1 Race at COTA. 3) Nascar will get an Street Race in LA approved. 4) Stewart-Haas will get at least 3 of their 4 drivers in the playoffs. 5) Alex Bowman will be the only Hendrick Driver to miss the playoffs 6) Nascar will sign a deal to run a Cup race in another country in 2025 7) SVG will win an oval race 8) we will have at least 3 first time winners in cup 9) JR Motorsports will make their first cup race 10) Toni Breidinger will be the first Woman to win a race in one of the Top 3 series of Nascar
Bold predictions: 1. All 4 Hendrick drivers will sweep the round of 4. 2. Joey Logano goes winless. 3. Denny Hamlin will win only one race. Period 4. Ryan Blaney and Chris Buescher will have another multiple win season. 5. Kyle Busch wins the Daytona 500. 6. McDowell has a multiple win season. 7. Spire wins a random race this year. (I say Corey Lajoie at either Atlanta race.) 8. William Byron wins the 2024 title. 9. MTJ wins two races, Bell wins 3 or more 10. Brad K wins several races at least.
Here are my 10 bold predictions (may change by end of the month) 1. Chastain has a rough season and a lot of awful luck, and Suarez is the more successful driver this year 2. Bell has the most wins heading into the playoffs 3. SHR will have a bounce back year with Briscoe and Berry especially 4. A driver of either the 91, 60 or 67 will come close to winning a race this year 5. Ty Gibbs has a strong season but fails to win, missing the playoffs much like Truex a couple years ago 6. Toyota will win the most Cup races 7. First half of the year will be plagued with rain, second half will be bone dry with little to no rain affecting races 8. Alex Bowman will win multiple races 9. Nemechek and Gilliland will perform on par with, or better than their teammates this year 10. Indianapolis will be an absolute banger of a race and considered one of the season’s best (I will be there so I hope this happens)
Agreed Bowmans last 1/2 of the year was dismal. But that being said that second half he was wrecked in the final laps running top 5 multiple times. He probably should have made the playoffs if it wasn't for his continual spat with denny.
I see Ty Gibbs winning more than his JGR teammates, I want Kyle Busch to run the double, I see SVG Kostecki and Waters all win one race SVG wins COTA, Waters Chicago, and Kostecki Sonoma and here's my bold prediction for my favorite driver, I predict Kyle Busch will win 8 races and his 3rd championship
Wish they would add few more charters. I feel like an auction would be best way to sell them. Starting Bid at maybe half of what the last charter was sold for. But maybe not I only think maybe 3 or 4 teams would be in the market for a charter RFK, trackhouse, 23XI, maybe kaulig
My 10 predictions for the 2024 nascar season are (5 cup, 2 xfinity, 2 truck, 1 arca) 1. None of the SHR cars will make the top 20 in points 2. All of the full time Toyota drivers will make the playoffs. 3. This will be the ONLY year that Iowa will be on the Nascar cup series schedule 4. Alex Bowman will return to the playoffs, but only by a few points, and will get eliminated in the RO16 5. Spire Motorsports will start a new era, Corey LaJoie and Carson Hocevar will both win and qualify for the playoffs, as Zane Smith will be in contention for it, 6. Hailie Deegan will get 2… top 10’s 7. SVG will go winless in the Xfinity series, and miss the playoffs. 8. Kyle Busch will win none of the 5 races he enters 9. Because of their rapid expansion, McAnally Hilgemann Racing will suffer massively, having only 1 win and only Eckes will qualify for the playoffs… but he will end up in the championship 4 10. Kris Wright will prove he is a crappy driver by somehow getting less wins and top 5’s that part-time William Sawalich, and will be locked in a championship fight with Andres Perez. I thought I’d show my championship 4 predictions, so here they are in order, (Arca is just top 4) Cup, Christopher Bell, Joey Logano, Kyle Larson, William Byron Xfinity, A.J. Allmendinger, Sam Mayer, Justin Allgaier, Austin Hill Truck, Christian Eckes, Corey Heim, Ty Majeski, Nick Sanchez Arca, Andreas Pérez, Kris Wright, Christian Rose, Lavar Scott
One bold prediction from me is that I think Joey will break his odd year slump, and go back to back slump years. I dont see him adjusting to the new Ford well. And he may or may not get into a few tussles with his other teammates
My 10 bold predictions: 01) Kyle Busch does not win the Daytona 500. Exactly how he ends the race i will not risk a guess on. 02) At least one watermelon gets smashed 03) Chevrolet will win the most races in at least one series. 04) Hendrick Motorsports cars win at least five races across the four entries 05) Spire's Truck Series team only wins with Kyle Busch driving, much like their Busch-owned predecessors according to Ben Rhodes earlier in the decade 06) Someone between cars 91, 60, 62, 84, and 67 finds themselves either close to a win or in a wall. I would include Kostecki but his planned number is currently unknown (though not 9 or 99 like Erebus fields in Australia because both are taken already). 07) At some point, Zane Smith is involved in someone's car igniting. I blame his COTA burnout for this one. 08) If the Cup Series does race at Chicago, at least one caution is because car 10 got wedged in the tire barrier somewhere again 09) Someone goes airborne during a race. Probably won't involve Ryan Newman somewhere unless he enters a race somewhere during the season. 10) Either two teammates will run into each other or a Big One wipes out every one of a team's multiple cars. Hendrick twice had three of their four cars caught in the same Big One early in the 2010s while teammate collisions are always possible.
@@DoglegMediaMatt With number 6 i mainly went with the known part-time cars (Project 91 for Trackhouse, RFK's Stage 60, Beard Motorsports' car currently fielding the 62 Brendan Gaughan drove in his early years in the Trucks, Jimmie using the reverse of his longtime Hendrick number, and 23XI's third car). As for number 8, i picked car 10 as the one in a tire barrier somewhere because it's the same driver who thrice found tire barriers while driving Legacy's 42.
SHR goes winless, Bowman wins a race, Chevy as a manufacturer struggles through the summer and into the playoffs, Circuit Gilles Villenueve is on the cup and xfinity schedule in 2025, and Toyota wins their first drafting track race(s) of the next gen era in 2024.
I predict that William Byron will finally decide to drop the "William" thing and go by "Will" or "Bill" instead, upping his cool factor by atleast 10-20%.
If NASCAR doesn't change the race length during green flag laps at Chicago... SVG doesn't win and a lot of you aren't up his a$$ thinking he's a race car god, he'sjust another driver. Winning an oval race in NASCAR is hard, beating NASCAR veterans on an oval when you haven't raced ovals before... damn near impossible. You give Wallace to much credit. The only reason he even made the playoffs was because 2 Hendrick cars scored zero points for many weeks with Elliott and Bowman literally not even being in races. Your own words, if Chase wasn't out this year then he makes enough points for the playoffs.. well that right there kicks Wallace out of the playoffs this past season. If Bowman doesnt get hurt racing dirt, he almost certainly earns more points than the 23 too. Keslowski winning a championship? I admit he has lifted that team up by going there but he's not even the best driver on the team. Wins have to count for something, and only one driver there won a race, multiple actually, and his name wasn't Brad Keslowski. I understand the point of the video is "bold" predictions but cmon man... a little to bold in my opinion on some of these. Wrong on SVG winning at an oval unless NASCAR changes the race length in race to fit his pit schedule again, Wallace doesn't improve from his 2023 standings because he's not a better driver than 16 other drivers through an entire season, and Keslowski is a better owner than a driver now and should be asking ask Chris Buesher for racing tips.
So the pit strategy had no play on SVG winning, he was actually one of the guys to get the short end of the stick by them delaying it. He also followed up the win with a solid qualifying and finish at Indy. I don’t know if I can agree on that one. Bubba making the field because 2 HMS drivers were injured does hold merit, but I don’t believe it takes away the momentum and confidence boosted from a run like that. Brad K hasn’t won a race, you are right. However, given the success he’s had in turning that team around, it’s safe to say his priorities were tied there rather than his own driving career. It will be interesting to see how it plays out!
Tbh I think Gragson will do well He is a talented driver, and showed it last year SHR may be bad, but it is still better than LMCs 42 I see him at least getting close to playoffs or winning a rece
My ten bold predictions There are three I agree on 1. Elliott bounces back 2. Bowman continues to struggle 3. Lewis Hamilton drives the 67 4. Bubba gets to the round of 8 however only wins once 5. Hamlin goes winless(might be dreaming about this one) 6. Byron wins the championship 7. Larson gets top three in Indy and Coke 600(not quite willing to say win either) 8. Jimmie Johnson gets a top five 9. Truex misses the playoffs 10. Suarez gets two wins, with one being Sonoma
My bold predictions: Erik Jones win, BUT, it won't be the southern 500, and Chase Elliott will win more than 3 races this season as a rebound from 2023
Alright So some are silly season heading into 2025, some are normal 2024 standings predictions Hemric Outshines many drivers, finishing top 20 in points Red Bull Comes back to NASCAR in all 3 series, running 2 cars in everyone and picking drivers with a lot of talent but little sponsorship. Brad, Gibbs and Bubba miss the playoffs but win Tyler Reddick and Chris Buescher are the 2 main championship contenders Reddick,Bell,Buescher,Byron are your championship 4 JRM does a similar thing to Spire and GainBridge with DHL, Taco Bell, and Citgo, gets 2 charters Jake Garcia joins The Wood Brothers Ben Rhodes goes full time in cup Chip Ganassi Racing runs Fords, #49, and gets Matty D in Cup Eckes to RFK #16, as Kaulig renumbers #16 to #32 TrackHouse has 2 non-chartered full-time entries, as Marks has talked about that RCR has Hill run #27 instead of #33 Gray Gaulding replaces Hill in Xfinity Kaulig in Xfinity has both Parker Retzlaff and Ty Majeski full time Trackhouse expands into Xfinity, with DGM Trackhouse Racing Connor Mosack to TRICON #11 Ty Dillon,Jake Garcia,Christian Eckes, and Corey Heim are the 2024 truck series championship 4 Xfinity will be Smith,Custer,Allgaier,and Mayer. Let me know what you think, cause this isn't even like half of my stuff I have in docs
I absolutely LOVE the Red Bull take. Ben Rhodes full time cup in 2025 would be a stretch, but I would love it with him being a Kentucky boy! I know JRM getting charters would make a lot of people happy too! All great predictions! Join the discord and chat with us!
My bold prediction is that Corey LaJoie finally wins Atlanta this year, since Corey has come close how many times to winning at that track and with everything Spire is doing he will finally get that first career win, Carson Hocevar will be next, rip on his erratic antics all you want but the dude is talented I feel he will win in his rookie season, and Zane Smith gets a win before the playoffs. Really Zane Smith isn’t going to be winless and let Hocevar win rookie of the year that easily plus he also has a lot of talent. That’s right not only will Spire have all their drivers in the playoffs I feel like each of them will have at least one win and be locked in.
For the charters which i have also been thinking. I think they will make it 40 charters with an auction to see who gets them. I think trackhouse buys one (plus it sounds like they are going to take the 71 after this season from spire) and make the 91 for svg, 23xi buys one and makes it the 67 for chandler smith, rfk buys one and makes it the 60 for justin haley and jrm buys the 88 for justin allgaier
@DoglegMediaMatt I know, I feel like the cup series is already competitive because there are only like 2 cars that I would say have a zero percent chance of winning
Kyle Busch wins the 500 and Denny gets the title. Bubba makes the round of 8 as does Ty. SHR sends a driver to the final 4. Elliot comes back to the final 4 with his teammate Byron.
Here is a Bold Prediction for 2024... Nascar's Most Popular driver will find his way to winning the Daytona 500 in 2024 and a Hendrick driver who went winless and finished outside the Top-10 in points wins the Coca-Cola 600 and the Brickyard 400. Chase Elliott will win the Daytona 500 and the Brickyard 400 joining Jimmie Johnson, Dale Jarrett, and Jamie McMurray as the driver who did all this in the same year. I mean think about this... Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the Daytona 500 in 2004 and in 2014. Jeff Gordon's first two victories came in 1994 during the races I've mentioned earlier. Three Crown Jewel races will be won.
Yo I have a idea for a video I think you should make a video about all of the old cup cars that race in arca like the Silver bullet of sterling marlin and the 36 that ran in the 2001 Daytona 500 the one that uhh liked dale sr. That’s my idea
Pretty good predictions overall, nothing really crazy. Honestly I'd say your Ty Gibbs pick is less likely than your Brad K pick. Nothing against Gibbs, he just has three star teammates and a stacked cup field. I'm not a fan of charters and like the days of a 43 car field. The top-35 points rule failed quickly, I'm surprised the charter system has lasted. I've got thoughts about them, I'll hold them for later. I think that SVG will run better than Steve Kinser or Dario Franchitti, he will not have the crossover success or consistency as JPM, Ambrose or AJA. Elliott will definitely run better in '24, I think he will either get bumped out in the round of 8, maybe 12. Bowman's sprint car crash definitely derailed his good start. Maybe having the winter to heal and rebuild, he'll be back stronger than in '23. I would love to see Lewis Hamilton in a top car to test him and the field. Not sure how Brodie will do either, the next gen car does have supercars flavoring, the driving is a totally different, I don't want to say style, maybe intensity. Thanks again for a great video and look forward to more!
@@DoglegMediaMatt thank you, I thought your predictions were well thought out and definitely not unattainable. I appreciate the content that you bring. And how genuinely interested in the history of Nascar that you are.
for your number six here are my guesses on what numbers would be used for each team if they get a new car RCR could see them fielding either the 29 or the 88 I think the 88 seems the most likely track house feel like the main option is the 91 RFK definitely the 60 Kaulig would have the 13 Front row definitely number 36 rick ware really anything from 52 to 54 but 52 seems to have the most history with the team so I'm gonna go with 52 23xl Would have 67 and legacy motors would just have the 84 also, a chance some teams could just become permanent like live fast motorsports 78 or NY with the 44 also, an Xfinity or track series team could possibly move up to cup
My **boldest** cup predictions Todd Gilliland will have a great year Chris Buescher wins the cup championship And last but least: Beard Motorsports will finally win a race.
They've been so close that my favorite team in the cup series I want them to win their been so close so much I feel like they're win is coming@@DoglegMediaMatt
I’d say some of your predictions are out of order for least to most bold. Your first two predictions were far more bold than the third and fourth predictions and arguably on par with a couple of a later prediction. Literally I’d say a bounce back year for Chase shouldn’t qualify is bold.
Yeah, I’m hearing the Ty prediction is more bold than some others. I personally don’t think Chase bouncing back is bold, but have you heard his fan base? They think the guy has fallen off a cliff 😂
unfortunately, half of the time we don't even get a full 40 car roster at most tracks so I doubt we would have a full 45 which is why 42 seems to be the most likely expansion
Kind of bold but kind of not, I think Larson wins his first ever drafting track race. I would say it goes in either Atlanta or Talladega since those are the plate tracks he can be up towards the front in ( till he crashes. ) My other big predictions is I see RFK combined winning 6+ races, and Reddick makes the champ 4 with his first ever 3 win season. I also see Larson getting the most wins out of everyone this year, including the championship.
I only got a few bold predictions for 2024 for NASCAR Dogleg Media So Here I go, 1. Kyle Busch Winning The 2024 Daytona 500 and I'm not even kidding you it's been Eight Long Years Since I've been Rooting for Kyle Busch to win The Daytona 500 Since 2016 and I think now it's the time for him to win The Great American Race. 2. Shane Van Gisbergen in The NASCAR Xfinity Series is going to Win Two Road Courses of Chicago and Circuit Of The Americas. But, Who knows in this video on what you said about Shane winning on a Oval is going to be tricky Dogleg Media, Because of The Unpredictable Scenarios But, Hey I Might Never Know and you might never know But, I can definitely see SVG getting a win on a Superspeedway and I'm going with Talladega Superspeedway for him to win. And, For Formula One Driver Lewis Hamilton trying to Race in NASCAR that's a bold prediction for him to race in NASCAR Dogleg Media! And, I can see him racing The Daytona 500, And Most of The Road Courses Since That's His Bread and Butter Since he raced for Four Decades The 90's, The 2000's The 2010's And The 2020's in his life and making his Formula One Debut at The 2007 Australian Grand Prix with McLaren. But, Them Tickets for them races will super pricey around 3K-5K But, I Might Be Wrong on The Prices Though But, Can You Imagine all The Media Sources being on him and Cameras are going to be all around him when he races. just being there to race just for his Star Power and The Celebrities going to The Races to see him race on if they know Lewis Hamilton if he races at Daytona for The Daytona 500, COTA, Sonoma, Chicago Street Course, Watkins Glen, And The Charlotte Roval. But, If he drives in Number Sixty-Seven Toyota For 23-XI Racing The Same one that Travis Pastrana Drove and Finished Eleventh Place at Last Year's 2023 Daytona 500 and The Same Toyota That Kamui Kobayashi Finished Thirty-Third at The Indianapolis Road Course Ahead of Kyle Busch who finished Thirty-Fourth and Joey Logano who finished Thirty-Fifth. But, I like the idea of Lewis Hamilton Racing in NASCAR Since it been Rumored since Nine Years Ago Since 2015 and now it's the time that I can him racing in NASCAR and I can agree with you Dogleg Media! But, Great Video And This Comment is done!🙂😎😎
There is zero chance there will be new charters added. The owners that had to spent 30-40 mil are not going to be happy if NASCAR just gives teams ones. There is also no reason to expand the field to 42 if the vast majority of schedule, they cant get 40 to the track.
@@rexthewolf3149Kimi, Button, Kobayashi all failed. SVG is an exapsion. It was the first street race for most other. Hamilton whoud probably be fast tho
Kyle Busch finally wins the Daytona 500. Because why not? Now that he's accepted his fate at the track, it would be twisted irony for him to finally get the win.
Prediction i hope doesnt come true, Kyle Busch will have a bad season due to it being an even number year (2012, 2020, 2022, 2024?) the season will have 0 wins for the first time ever and he will miss the round of 12.
Sorry but the Lewis rumor is happening until at least 2026 cause he has shown faith that Mercedes can make a title winning by at least the new regulations
My bold prediction: A BOLDer will roll onto the track and end one of the races prematurely.
Aye that would be a wild addition to the weather shortened races video 😂
I mean a Orange balloon rolled across Chicago in the Busch Series in 2004 during a qualifying lap lmao
Here is the thing about "fans have demanded it"
Fans asked for more road courses, more short tracks a dirt track and fewer 1.5 mile tracks. Look how those same fans reacted when they got it
The life of a NASCAR fan, never satisfied! 😂
I'd say, if they DO increase the field and add 3 charters, here's how I'd predict them to go...
- One charter for 23XI, and with it nabbing either Erik Jones or John Hunter Nemechek from LMC, allowing them to bring up another driver from the Toyota stable in a lower series...perhaps bringing someone like Ryan Truex back to cup with an eventual JGR seat waiting for him if he performs well enough there.
- One charter for Trackhouse, allowing them to move Zane Smith into the main team roster, and allowing SVG to move to Cup in that third Spire entry that's essentially a Trackhouse car under the Spire banner and charter.
- One charter for RFK, allowing them to bring up a lower series Ford driver like Riley Herbst (because we all know that if Cole Custer goes back to Cup, it's going to be at SHR, not somewhere else) or maybe even someone like Ty Majeski (who ran for Roush in Xfinity previously). Both would bring sponsorship and talent, and honestly...I really think a Road Ranger paint scheme would look epic with RFK's scheme styling with the chrome numbers and such. This would likely be my boldest charter prediction of the three, as the other two seem super likely if it was to happen...especially the Trackhouse one.
LOVE that last one. BAD BRAD 2024. THE 2 WON IN '12. 2x12=24!!!
Ayeeee!
I like your 6th Bold Prediction I personally think they should add 4 more charters and expand the field size to 43 cars .
I know a lot of fans would love that!
Three of my boldest predictions are that NASCAR decides to change the points format back into a season-long title run, they get rid of the charter system for good, allowing only the fastest 43 to make it into the show, and that we go the full distance of every race without any overtimes, whether we finish under caution or not (and they let them race back to the line).

My 10 Bold predictions
1) The Daytona 500 will not have a full field of 40 cars and will make Jim France hold back even more about making the charters permanent
2) Nascar will buy COTA, forcing F1 to work with them to keep the F1 Race at COTA.
3) Nascar will get an Street Race in LA approved.
4) Stewart-Haas will get at least 3 of their 4 drivers in the playoffs.
5) Alex Bowman will be the only Hendrick Driver to miss the playoffs
6) Nascar will sign a deal to run a Cup race in another country in 2025
7) SVG will win an oval race
8) we will have at least 3 first time winners in cup
9) JR Motorsports will make their first cup race
10) Toni Breidinger will be the first Woman to win a race in one of the Top 3 series of Nascar
Love it! The international race is a must for me!

3. Denny Hamlin will win only one race. Period
4. Ryan Blaney and Chris Buescher will have another multiple win season.
5. Kyle Busch wins the Daytona 500.
6. McDowell has a multiple win season.
7. Spire wins a random race this year. (I say Corey Lajoie at either Atlanta race.)
8. William Byron wins the 2024 title.
9. MTJ wins two races, Bell wins 3 or more
10. Brad K wins several races at least.
I read this in discord and the first 2 are still so crazy 😂
@@DoglegMediaMatt I agree with most of yours and I hope that at least half of them will come true especially the 6th one. It's my all time favorite.
The 41 of Ryan P will win a race. If that's not bold, I don't know what is
That is very bold!
Here are my 10 bold predictions (may change by end of the month)
1. Chastain has a rough season and a lot of awful luck, and Suarez is the more successful driver this year
2. Bell has the most wins heading into the playoffs
3. SHR will have a bounce back year with Briscoe and Berry especially
4. A driver of either the 91, 60 or 67 will come close to winning a race this year
5. Ty Gibbs has a strong season but fails to win, missing the playoffs much like Truex a couple years ago
6. Toyota will win the most Cup races
7. First half of the year will be plagued with rain, second half will be bone dry with little to no rain affecting races
8. Alex Bowman will win multiple races
9. Nemechek and Gilliland will perform on par with, or better than their teammates this year
10. Indianapolis will be an absolute banger of a race and considered one of the season’s best (I will be there so I hope this happens)
Toyota having the most wins while Gibbs doesn’t have any is a bold take for sure! Great list!
Agreed Bowmans last 1/2 of the year was dismal. But that being said that second half he was wrecked in the final laps running top 5 multiple times. He probably should have made the playoffs if it wasn't for his continual spat with denny.
I see Ty Gibbs winning more than his JGR teammates, I want Kyle Busch to run the double, I see SVG Kostecki and Waters all win one race SVG wins COTA, Waters Chicago, and Kostecki Sonoma and here's my bold prediction for my favorite driver, I predict Kyle Busch will win 8 races and his 3rd championship
Aye that would be insane if all that happened!
Wish they would add few more charters.
I feel like an auction would be best way to sell them. Starting Bid at maybe half of what the last charter was sold for.
But maybe not I only think maybe 3 or 4 teams would be in the market for a charter
RFK, trackhouse, 23XI, maybe kaulig
Problem with adding too many is you don’t wanna water it down.
Need to keep demand higher than availability
Yeah I see that, I think they should go to teams that actively run an extra car and show legit speed with it. 23XI and Trackhouse prime examples
My 10 predictions for the 2024 nascar season are (5 cup, 2 xfinity, 2 truck, 1 arca)
1. None of the SHR cars will make the top 20 in points
2. All of the full time Toyota drivers will make the playoffs.
3. This will be the ONLY year that Iowa will be on the Nascar cup series schedule
4. Alex Bowman will return to the playoffs, but only by a few points, and will get eliminated in the RO16
5. Spire Motorsports will start a new era, Corey LaJoie and Carson Hocevar will both win and qualify for the playoffs, as Zane Smith will be in contention for it,
6. Hailie Deegan will get 2… top 10’s
7. SVG will go winless in the Xfinity series, and miss the playoffs.
8. Kyle Busch will win none of the 5 races he enters
9. Because of their rapid expansion, McAnally Hilgemann Racing will suffer massively, having only 1 win and only Eckes will qualify for the playoffs… but he will end up in the championship 4
10. Kris Wright will prove he is a crappy driver by somehow getting less wins and top 5’s that part-time William Sawalich, and will be locked in a championship fight with Andres Perez.
I thought I’d show my championship 4 predictions, so here they are in order, (Arca is just top 4)
Cup, Christopher Bell, Joey Logano, Kyle Larson, William Byron
Xfinity, A.J. Allmendinger, Sam Mayer, Justin Allgaier, Austin Hill
Truck, Christian Eckes, Corey Heim, Ty Majeski, Nick Sanchez
Arca, Andreas Pérez, Kris Wright, Christian Rose, Lavar Scott
Love it! You have some great predictions! Join us in the Discord!
@@DoglegMediaMatt I don’t have discord, so I don’t believe that’s possible
One bold prediction from me is that I think Joey will break his odd year slump, and go back to back slump years. I dont see him adjusting to the new Ford well. And he may or may not get into a few tussles with his other teammates
That would be a first for sure!
I think if SVG would win on an oval, I think it would be a superspeedway
That also could be the case, it will be a Soeedway or a short track. Intermediates will be a learning curve for sure
@@DoglegMediaMatt If he does win at a Superspeedway, he better be careful not to get caught up in The Big One.
My 10 bold predictions:
01) Kyle Busch does not win the Daytona 500. Exactly how he ends the race i will not risk a guess on.
02) At least one watermelon gets smashed
03) Chevrolet will win the most races in at least one series.
04) Hendrick Motorsports cars win at least five races across the four entries
05) Spire's Truck Series team only wins with Kyle Busch driving, much like their Busch-owned predecessors according to Ben Rhodes earlier in the decade
06) Someone between cars 91, 60, 62, 84, and 67 finds themselves either close to a win or in a wall. I would include Kostecki but his planned number is currently unknown (though not 9 or 99 like Erebus fields in Australia because both are taken already).
07) At some point, Zane Smith is involved in someone's car igniting. I blame his COTA burnout for this one.
08) If the Cup Series does race at Chicago, at least one caution is because car 10 got wedged in the tire barrier somewhere again
09) Someone goes airborne during a race. Probably won't involve Ryan Newman somewhere unless he enters a race somewhere during the season.
10) Either two teammates will run into each other or a Big One wipes out every one of a team's multiple cars. Hendrick twice had three of their four cars caught in the same Big One early in the 2010s while teammate collisions are always possible.
Number 6 has me excited that Jimmie could be in contention to win, and number 8 made me spit out my coffee from laughing 😂
@@DoglegMediaMatt With number 6 i mainly went with the known part-time cars (Project 91 for Trackhouse, RFK's Stage 60, Beard Motorsports' car currently fielding the 62 Brendan Gaughan drove in his early years in the Trucks, Jimmie using the reverse of his longtime Hendrick number, and 23XI's third car). As for number 8, i picked car 10 as the one in a tire barrier somewhere because it's the same driver who thrice found tire barriers while driving Legacy's 42.
Great stuff as always!
Thanks a ton! Would love to hear some of your predictions!
@DoglegMediaMatt I agree with your prediction about Brad! I think Buescher will have a standout year as well!
SHR goes winless, Bowman wins a race, Chevy as a manufacturer struggles through the summer and into the playoffs, Circuit Gilles Villenueve is on the cup and xfinity schedule in 2025, and Toyota wins their first drafting track race(s) of the next gen era in 2024.
Love the Montreal prediction!
I predict that William Byron will finally decide to drop the "William" thing and go by "Will" or "Bill" instead, upping his cool factor by atleast 10-20%.
This is hilarious and yet so true 😂
If NASCAR doesn't change the race length during green flag laps at Chicago... SVG doesn't win and a lot of you aren't up his a$$ thinking he's a race car god, he'sjust another driver. Winning an oval race in NASCAR is hard, beating NASCAR veterans on an oval when you haven't raced ovals before... damn near impossible.
You give Wallace to much credit. The only reason he even made the playoffs was because 2 Hendrick cars scored zero points for many weeks with Elliott and Bowman literally not even being in races. Your own words, if Chase wasn't out this year then he makes enough points for the playoffs.. well that right there kicks Wallace out of the playoffs this past season. If Bowman doesnt get hurt racing dirt, he almost certainly earns more points than the 23 too.
Keslowski winning a championship? I admit he has lifted that team up by going there but he's not even the best driver on the team. Wins have to count for something, and only one driver there won a race, multiple actually, and his name wasn't Brad Keslowski.
I understand the point of the video is "bold" predictions but cmon man... a little to bold in my opinion on some of these. Wrong on SVG winning at an oval unless NASCAR changes the race length in race to fit his pit schedule again, Wallace doesn't improve from his 2023 standings because he's not a better driver than 16 other drivers through an entire season, and Keslowski is a better owner than a driver now and should be asking ask Chris Buesher for racing tips.
So the pit strategy had no play on SVG winning, he was actually one of the guys to get the short end of the stick by them delaying it. He also followed up the win with a solid qualifying and finish at Indy. I don’t know if I can agree on that one.
Bubba making the field because 2 HMS drivers were injured does hold merit, but I don’t believe it takes away the momentum and confidence boosted from a run like that.
Brad K hasn’t won a race, you are right. However, given the success he’s had in turning that team around, it’s safe to say his priorities were tied there rather than his own driving career.
It will be interesting to see how it plays out!
Tbh I think Gragson will do well
He is a talented driver, and showed it last year
SHR may be bad, but it is still better than LMCs 42
I see him at least getting close to playoffs or winning a rece
That would be cool to see, it’s not totally unheard of
“i’ll start off relatively tame”
“ty gibbs finishes highest of all gibbs drivers in 2024”
now that’s a way to open up a bold predictions video
I didn’t even think of it that way 😂 I genuinely thought it was the tamest prediction 😂
My ten bold predictions
There are three I agree on
1. Elliott bounces back
2. Bowman continues to struggle
3. Lewis Hamilton drives the 67
4. Bubba gets to the round of 8 however only wins once
5. Hamlin goes winless(might be dreaming about this one)
6. Byron wins the championship
7. Larson gets top three in Indy and Coke 600(not quite willing to say win either)
8. Jimmie Johnson gets a top five
9. Truex misses the playoffs
10. Suarez gets two wins, with one being Sonoma
Your number 5 and 8 predictions make me very happy! 😂
My bold predictions: Erik Jones win, BUT, it won't be the southern 500, and Chase Elliott will win more than 3 races this season as a rebound from 2023
Glad we agree on chase! And I also see Jones winning, but I didn’t think that was bold enough. I love it tho!
Alright So some are silly season heading into 2025, some are normal 2024 standings predictions
Hemric Outshines many drivers, finishing top 20 in points
Red Bull Comes back to NASCAR in all 3 series, running 2 cars in everyone and picking drivers with a lot of talent but little sponsorship.
Brad, Gibbs and Bubba miss the playoffs but win
Tyler Reddick and Chris Buescher are the 2 main championship contenders
Reddick,Bell,Buescher,Byron are your championship 4
JRM does a similar thing to Spire and GainBridge with DHL, Taco Bell, and Citgo, gets 2 charters
Jake Garcia joins The Wood Brothers
Ben Rhodes goes full time in cup
Chip Ganassi Racing runs Fords, #49, and gets Matty D in Cup
Eckes to RFK #16, as Kaulig renumbers #16 to #32
TrackHouse has 2 non-chartered full-time entries, as Marks has talked about that
RCR has Hill run #27 instead of #33
Gray Gaulding replaces Hill in Xfinity
Kaulig in Xfinity has both Parker Retzlaff and Ty Majeski full time
Trackhouse expands into Xfinity, with DGM Trackhouse Racing
Connor Mosack to TRICON #11
Ty Dillon,Jake Garcia,Christian Eckes, and Corey Heim are the 2024 truck series championship 4
Xfinity will be Smith,Custer,Allgaier,and Mayer.
Let me know what you think, cause this isn't even like half of my stuff I have in docs
I absolutely LOVE the Red Bull take. Ben Rhodes full time cup in 2025 would be a stretch, but I would love it with him being a Kentucky boy! I know JRM getting charters would make a lot of people happy too! All great predictions! Join the discord and chat with us!
@@DoglegMediaMatt Will Do!
My bold prediction is that Corey LaJoie finally wins Atlanta this year, since Corey has come close how many times to winning at that track and with everything Spire is doing he will finally get that first career win, Carson Hocevar will be next, rip on his erratic antics all you want but the dude is talented I feel he will win in his rookie season, and Zane Smith gets a win before the playoffs. Really Zane Smith isn’t going to be winless and let Hocevar win rookie of the year that easily plus he also has a lot of talent. That’s right not only will Spire have all their drivers in the playoffs I feel like each of them will have at least one win and be locked in.
Love it!!
@@DoglegMediaMatt I’m glad I wasn’t sure if this one is too bold
@@Wisconsin222definitely not!
For the charters which i have also been thinking. I think they will make it 40 charters with an auction to see who gets them. I think trackhouse buys one (plus it sounds like they are going to take the 71 after this season from spire) and make the 91 for svg, 23xi buys one and makes it the 67 for chandler smith, rfk buys one and makes it the 60 for justin haley and jrm buys the 88 for justin allgaier
That’s would be wild, but man would it make the Cup series super competitive!
@DoglegMediaMatt I know, I feel like the cup series is already competitive because there are only like 2 cars that I would say have a zero percent chance of winning
Kyle Busch wins the 500 and Denny gets the title. Bubba makes the round of 8 as does Ty. SHR sends a driver to the final 4. Elliot comes back to the final 4 with his teammate Byron.
Hamlin winning the title isn’t my favorite prediction 😂
I think that Ty will get 2 wins
Bubba will win 1
I think that chase will only get 1 win
I’m glad we at least agree on Ty!
I think for the double an Indycar star should try NASCAR. Maybe Newgarden or McLaughlin with Penske as a 4th car.
I love this idea!
@@DoglegMediaMatt dang, that reply was quick, what are you doing?
@@emilyespey6995 as fast as Xfinity 10G 😂 currently not sleeping like I should be 😅
@@DoglegMediaMatt I am about to. "And it's a new lap record"
@@DoglegMediaMatt just subbed
My big prediction: Kyle Larson runs top 6 in the Indy 500 hops on a plane and proceeds to win the Coke 600.
I agree!
Here is a Bold Prediction for 2024... Nascar's Most Popular driver will find his way to winning the Daytona 500 in 2024 and a Hendrick driver who went winless and finished outside the Top-10 in points wins the Coca-Cola 600 and the Brickyard 400.
Chase Elliott will win the Daytona 500 and the Brickyard 400 joining Jimmie Johnson, Dale Jarrett, and Jamie McMurray as the driver who did all this in the same year.
I mean think about this... Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the Daytona 500 in 2004 and in 2014. Jeff Gordon's first two victories came in 1994 during the races I've mentioned earlier.
Three Crown Jewel races will be won.
Love it!
For your sixth bold prediction entry:
1. Trackhouse
2. FRM
3. RFK Racing
FRM is interesting!
I assume your picks of Trackhouse and RFK are so Project 91 and Stage 60 become full-time rides. As for FRM, what number would that end up as?
@@corbinselanne7990 yes and yes. Either 35, 36 or 37 my good man.
@@johnathonkelley5234 37 may be tricky if JTG had given it up after shutting down their second car
@@corbinselanne7990 which they did. I miss the 37 a lot man, but I highly doubt FRM would ever pick another number that's not in the 30s.
I predict that Larson will win the double and I would also like to see SBG attempt the double in at least 2026
Love it!
SVG is the real deal!! You'll see
Yo I have a idea for a video I think you should make a video about all of the old cup cars that race in arca like the Silver bullet of sterling marlin and the 36 that ran in the 2001 Daytona 500 the one that uhh liked dale sr. That’s my idea
I like it! I’ll see if I can figure out a way to source the data!
My bold prediction is Corey LaJoie gets his first win at Atlanta
Man a lot of people think this! I would love to see it!
Pretty good predictions overall, nothing really crazy. Honestly I'd say your Ty Gibbs pick is less likely than your Brad K pick. Nothing against Gibbs, he just has three star teammates and a stacked cup field.
I'm not a fan of charters and like the days of a 43 car field. The top-35 points rule failed quickly, I'm surprised the charter system has lasted. I've got thoughts about them, I'll hold them for later.
I think that SVG will run better than Steve Kinser or Dario Franchitti, he will not have the crossover success or consistency as JPM, Ambrose or AJA.
Elliott will definitely run better in '24, I think he will either get bumped out in the round of 8, maybe 12.
Bowman's sprint car crash definitely derailed his good start. Maybe having the winter to heal and rebuild, he'll be back stronger than in '23.
I would love to see Lewis Hamilton in a top car to test him and the field.
Not sure how Brodie will do either, the next gen car does have supercars flavoring, the driving is a totally different, I don't want to say style, maybe intensity.
Thanks again for a great video and look forward to more!
Love the analysis of the predictions! You rock!
@@DoglegMediaMatt thank you, I thought your predictions were well thought out and definitely not unattainable.
I appreciate the content that you bring. And how genuinely interested in the history of Nascar that you are.
for your number six here are my guesses on what numbers would be used for each team if they get a new car
RCR could see them fielding either the 29 or the 88 I think the 88 seems the most likely
track house feel like the main option is the 91
RFK definitely the 60
Kaulig would have the 13
Front row definitely number 36
rick ware really anything from 52 to 54 but 52 seems to have the most history with the team so I'm gonna go with 52
23xl Would have 67
and legacy motors would just have the 84
also, a chance some teams could just become permanent like live fast motorsports 78 or NY with the 44
also, an Xfinity or track series team could possibly move up to cup
I predict Kyle Larson joins Tony Stewart by completing all 1100 miles and a big long shot but he wins both races.
WINS BOTH??? That’s wild, but I’m here for it
Hopefully 10 becomes true let's go brad
Yessir!
My **boldest** cup predictions
Todd Gilliland will have a great year
Chris Buescher wins the cup championship
And last but least:
Beard Motorsports will finally win a race.
Beard Motorsports will win a CUP race?!?
They've been so close that my favorite team in the cup series I want them to win their been so close so much I feel like they're win is coming@@DoglegMediaMatt
I'm gonna be at Indy to watch the 500 I think Larson will do good
Awesome! I hope he does!
@DoglegMediaMatt don't think he'll win indy but I believe a podium at Indy and a win in Charlotte
I’d say some of your predictions are out of order for least to most bold. Your first two predictions were far more bold than the third and fourth predictions and arguably on par with a couple of a later prediction. Literally I’d say a bounce back year for Chase shouldn’t qualify is bold.
Yeah, I’m hearing the Ty prediction is more bold than some others. I personally don’t think Chase bouncing back is bold, but have you heard his fan base? They think the guy has fallen off a cliff 😂
And sure, as a fan I'd love a 45 car field, but I also understand that someone has to pay for it
Yeah, I totally understand that!
unfortunately, half of the time we don't even get a full 40 car roster at most tracks so I doubt we would have a full 45 which is why 42 seems to be the most likely expansion
Kind of bold but kind of not, I think Larson wins his first ever drafting track race. I would say it goes in either Atlanta or Talladega since those are the plate tracks he can be up towards the front in ( till he crashes. ) My other big predictions is I see RFK combined winning 6+ races, and Reddick makes the champ 4 with his first ever 3 win season. I also see Larson getting the most wins out of everyone this year, including the championship.
I could see those happening! Never count out Larson!
I only got a few bold predictions for 2024 for NASCAR Dogleg Media So Here I go,
1. Kyle Busch Winning The 2024 Daytona 500 and I'm not even kidding you it's been Eight Long Years Since I've been Rooting for Kyle Busch to win The Daytona 500 Since 2016 and I think now it's the time for him to win The Great American Race.
2. Shane Van Gisbergen in The NASCAR Xfinity Series is going to Win Two Road Courses of Chicago and Circuit Of The Americas.
But, Who knows in this video on what you said about Shane winning on a Oval is going to be tricky Dogleg Media, Because of The Unpredictable Scenarios But, Hey I Might Never Know and you might never know But, I can definitely see SVG getting a win on a Superspeedway and I'm going with Talladega Superspeedway for him to win. And, For Formula One Driver Lewis Hamilton trying to Race in NASCAR that's a bold prediction for him to race in NASCAR Dogleg Media! And, I can see him racing The Daytona 500, And Most of The Road Courses Since That's His Bread and Butter Since he raced for Four Decades The 90's, The 2000's The 2010's And The 2020's in his life and making his Formula One Debut at The 2007 Australian Grand Prix with McLaren. But, Them Tickets for them races will super pricey around 3K-5K But, I Might Be Wrong on The Prices Though But, Can You Imagine all The Media Sources being on him and Cameras are going to be all around him when he races. just being there to race just for his Star Power and The Celebrities going to The Races to see him race on if they know Lewis Hamilton if he races at Daytona for The Daytona 500, COTA, Sonoma, Chicago Street Course, Watkins Glen, And The Charlotte Roval. But, If he drives in Number Sixty-Seven Toyota For 23-XI Racing The Same one that Travis Pastrana Drove and Finished Eleventh Place at Last Year's 2023 Daytona 500 and The Same Toyota That Kamui Kobayashi Finished Thirty-Third at The Indianapolis Road Course Ahead of Kyle Busch who finished Thirty-Fourth and Joey Logano who finished Thirty-Fifth. But, I like the idea of Lewis Hamilton Racing in NASCAR Since it been Rumored since Nine Years Ago Since 2015 and now it's the time that I can him racing in NASCAR and I can agree with you Dogleg Media! But, Great Video And This Comment is done!🙂😎😎
Love it! Superspeedway’s are unpredictable so that makes sense that if SVG wins an oval it would be one of those!
There is zero chance there will be new charters added. The owners that had to spent 30-40 mil are not going to be happy if NASCAR just gives teams ones. There is also no reason to expand the field to 42 if the vast majority of schedule, they cant get 40 to the track.
I also think Lewis Hamilton will win a NASCAR race if he runs one if it's on a road course
Tbh most top end gt/formual drivers could win a nascar race on a road course.
@@rexthewolf3149Kimi, Button, Kobayashi all failed. SVG is an exapsion. It was the first street race for most other. Hamilton whoud probably be fast tho
Kyle Busch finally wins the Daytona 500. Because why not? Now that he's accepted his fate at the track, it would be twisted irony for him to finally get the win.
I love it!
You mean kinda like how Kyle's brother finally gave Smoke a Daytona 500 win the first race after Tony retired?
@@corbinselanne7990 Precisely lol
I know a bold prediction, 2024 will have at least 20 different winners a nascar record
Wow! I would love to see it!
not really that weird of a prediction, but I just feel like we're gonna see something with a 00 kind of number like 07 06 or 03
I don't think Gibbs will be higher than Bell and Hamlin, they still too good (they both were top 5 in standings 2 years in a row, so...)
Ford and Team Penske went back to back drivers championship wins ...It's Team Chevy time.
I can see it! But bad Brad is long overdue!
Bell will win the championship 🙏
I know you’re hoping for that!
Ik im supposed to be like "woah brad wont win the championship" but i mean i could see him winning it
See! It’s not that wild!
@@DoglegMediaMatt lmfao RFK IS BACK so it is possible
Prediction i hope doesnt come true, Kyle Busch will have a bad season due to it being an even number year (2012, 2020, 2022, 2024?) the season will have 0 wins for the first time ever and he will miss the round of 12.
This would hurt… I hope you are wrong 😂
Sorry but the Lewis rumor is happening until at least 2026 cause he has shown faith that Mercedes can make a title winning by at least the new regulations
I’m not super familiar with F1, so you definitely know more than me! But hey. A 1 off race happens all the time!
And even then WEC and the triple crown is an opportunity that would be foolish to miss.
