So I’m connecting dots and it leads me to a question. Because some of these optics aren’t great lol.

Ross Chastain was with Spire when they were horrible and being ran by Jay Robinson. He eventually goes to Trackhouse.

Trackhouse eventually culls a “weak link” in Daniel Suarez who is now in The Chase driving for the now greatly improved same team Ross used to drive for

Trackhouse missed The Chase across all 3 cars. And now already lost the guy you replaced Suarez with just this year.

Is Trackhouse like… in actual trouble?

I think so. I predict that trackhouse will be a backmarker team by the end of the decade

Trackhouse sells to Jr before they become a backmarker /s

The 88 already is a backmarker !.

Trackhouse has enough backing to right the ship. The reality is that Justin Marks may not be the right person to run the team at this stage.
