I would like to see who yall think are the drivers that will take this sport that we love so much into the future once the likes of Bloomquist Moyer McDowell Babb have called it quits and moved on to either running their own teams or building chassis and not racing at all anymore

The sport has so many good young drivers..

Pierce, Sheppard, O' Neal, Erb, Moran, Ferguson, Overton, Culp, Gilpin, Dohm, Carpenter, Hawkins, Satterlee, Bronson, Blair, Miley. I'm forgetting a few, I'm sure.

Guys like Josh Richards, and Jonathan Davenport aren't old either.

I think of the ones mentioned above 4 really stand out to me:

Tyler Carpenter, Devin Moran, Hudson O'neal, B-Shep

All these guys have the racing bloodline, and while 3 of the 4 run a series if they have an off night tour wise their usually somewhere else racing.

This isn't meant as a dig at anyone, there are several well funded talented young drivers about, but... I don't see anyone, that I am aware of that are capable of filling either Bloomquist, Moyer, Moran, Mars or even Babb's driving shoes. What I mean is these guys didn't just win a lot of races, they helped push the design of the cars forward with their own hands, their own ideas. They took, "built" cars and changed them or modified them in an effort to be better than the rest, some eventually opting to build their own so the car would be exactly what they envisioned. I don't see any younger guys doing anything like that, they just all seem content to run whats available and if it doesn't work for them they change cars like they change underwear. So yeah there are some good wheel men coming along, but I prefer the total package, "Racer" as to just a driver. Feel me?

The quote isn't working but the Carpenters build their own Chassis? To your point wouldn't he be considered a "Racer" in your book?

Yes, Tyler would fit the bill. Thanks, I'd forgotten about him.

You know Gregg Satterlee is older than Richards, right?

I figured they were around the same age, but everybody thinks Josh is older because he's been around forever. That's why I listed him and Davenport together at the bottom, both are still young but more accomplished than the others I named. Wasn't really putting anyone in an age category or anything but thanks..
