Thoughts on drivers to fill the Truckers seat
 
There was a thread on here a while back discussing who they would like to see in the 10 Truckers car. I know Cindi and Jim both read this board..... maybe if this thread stays on track we can offer up ideas for drivers to fill that seat.

One name that has not been mentioned in that other thread is Joss Moffatt. 2007 Lawrenceburg track champion.... has feature wins over the last several years..... does not tear up equipment..... clean racer..... very personable in the pits..... great guy to talk to and get along with.

Do you think Joss would be a good shoe/good fit at Truckers?

Another shoe that i have not seen posted on here was Justin Marvel he ran the truckers car for a brief time. Seems like a lot of good wheels have went thur the hands of the truckers team! :checkered:

I'd heard they've already filled the seat for after Eldora, when Brady Bacon will run the car. I guess we'll find out in due time...

A guy to look at would be Jonathan Vennard. He's a good young racer and just needs a break to get in a seat. I know he is retired, but another guy I would like to see in the car is Jason Knoke. He has been a favorite of mine for a while and I would like to see him drive some more. However, he might be enjoying his retirement and he is not exactly obligated to get back in a race car simply because I want him to.:D

I like the mention of Joss Moffatt. Don't know, In my mind a driver needs a few years to mature and Joss has quickly reached that. Consistantly up front. Clean runnin and fast. They already got the other one. I don't even know if hes interested but Broc Burton impresses me and I believe is fully capable.

And Rick Vaughn can flat put it on when he's close

I would still like to see Dickie Gaines get a shot at this ride. I know it has been posted that he is set for this season, but the car is not yet completed. They hope to be ready for the opener at Bloomington. If he could get a chance in the Trucker's car, maybe his other plans would be put on hold. JMO

Thoughts on how much it would cost each of the drivers mentioned to drive? Prices for certain drivers have already been named from my understanding.

There has been some quality names mentioned in this post.... Hope one of them gets an opportunity in the 10. Biggest problem is money and time for these guys (like most people) Take Neely for example…. He just got engaged and is working full time to hopefully have a “career” and family some day. He can still hold a pretty wheel, but does he have the time or the cash? Quality race cars are very expensive…. Damn sham it is.
