Who Can Replace

[racincowboy02]

OK so i have been doing some thinking and lets try and have a decent discussion about who replaces the big names of today. Ok so when does the torch get passed on and who will the torch get passed on to? Lets say Davenport, Bloomquist, Oneal, Owens, Laningan, Madden, Babb, Richards, B Shep, and all of the big names that have been around for the last 10-15 years hang it up after this season and are done with racing for good who gets the torch to carry the sport on for the next 10-15 years.

I personally think that Devin Moran was passed the torch by his father and Hudson is being passed to torch by Don. Now who does the rest of the guys pass it on to carry the sport and i know that these guys won't be done at the end of the season but lets just see who the young guns are that will carry the sport on and be around and be huge names in the years to come

Davenport, Richards, and Sheppard will probably race for another 15-20 years...

[Dlmfan123]

Richards is 30, sheppy is 25... don’t see them going anywhere for a while. But, peirce,overton, oneal, moran,terbo, fergy, Weiss, zeigler, English, carpenter, Norris are all super talented behind the wheel. Heck I’m sure I’m even missing a few

[racincowboy02]

Well i wasn't thinking about them being so you but lets say that Richards get a nascar ride for Hendricks does he go or does he turn that down and continue to run dirt same questing with B Shepp and Davenport.

Would yall agree that Donnie Moran passed the torch to his son Devin to carry on the family name. What about Don passing it to Hudson

Richards isnt getting a ride with Hendricks or any other NASCAR team....

[racincowboy02]

OH ok so you are going to have Davenport Richards and B Shepp for the next 15-20 years

[EvelB7]

Agree with most but add in Hoffman...

[ThebigE]

Richards had a stint in NASCAR and it didn't go well. Doubtful he would try it again.

Why do Tyler Bare and Tanner English always get left out of the convo? Logan Roberson? These are young kids that could wheel a super and run well given the right equipment

Re read post 3... Logan hasn’t even been in a super yet to know exactly what he can do. Tyler bare has been very good all year this year. Exited to see what he does at charlotte

[Pennsboro23]

Zack Dohm, Jared Hawkins, Mason Zeigler, Gregg Satterlee are all relatively young and have many years left.

Booper Bare?

[PRCKartRacer9]

He is Boopers boy I believe. Best haircut in DLM

There are plenty of great drivers available to take things over. The real question is, who is going to own the race teams when some of these current owners hang it up? With prices going up all the time, I think that is the better question.

[Doc88D]

Biplane wins the thread! There are a TON of young drivers at the local & regional level that can step up and wheel with the big dogs. The real question is who is going to continue to pay for it? Many of the rich Daddies & Papaws are currently on the asphalt side paying weekly rent-a-rides so little Billy can race Craftsman Trucks or Nationwide cars. Where are the Carlton Lamms, Lance Landers, Ed Petroffs, Ronnie Delks & Mike Reece's going to come from. These men loved dirt racing and paid the bills. Who does that 15 years from now???
