Fantasy NASCAR Racing

Kaulig paired Trinchere with his new hire, Landon Cassill.  The season started off promising.  They finished 14th at Daytona, and the next eleven races would only finish worse than 15th twice, because of an accident.  They ran strong and finished second at Martinsville, and had seven top tens in the first 12 races.  After that, things leveled off, and a top ten run was rare.  Late in the season, Kaulig decided to swap the crew chiefs of Cassill and Daniel Hemric.  Hemric, the defending Xfinity Champion had under-performed the whole season, and Kaulig wanted to try and shake things up a bit.  So, Trinchere went to work with Hemric, and Alex Yontz moved to lead Cassill.  Things seemed to improve for Hemric as their nine races together saw them have five top tens finishes; including the final four events. Hemric was back with Kaulig Racing in 2023, and it is anticipated Trinchere will call the shots.  The pair was back together for 2023.  It started off bad when Hemric was caught up in a wreck at Daytona and finished 36th.  They bounced back with most runs in the top ten the next five races, and almost won at Atlanta when they finished second.  They were second at Atlanta again when NASCAR made their second trip there.  Hemric made the Chase, but they switched him to the #10 car the last eight races of the year, working with crew chief Alex Yontz.  Trinchere worked with three different drivers the final eight races of 2023.  Once with road course ace Jordan Taylor at the Roval.  He was with Derek Kraus for four starts and they had a best finish of eighth; added an 11th and 12th.  The other three races were with up and coming driver Lane Riggs.  Their best finish was tenth at Las Vegas, and added an 11th and 19th.  For the year, Trinchere led his quarter of drivers to five top five finishes and 15 top tens.  Hemric is moving up to the Cup series in 2024 and work with Trent Owens.  Trinchere will remain with the #11 car and driver Josh Williams.
