A question has been making the rounds through the NASCAR community: Where will AJ Allmendinger race next year? And how it will affect the young grandson of Richard Childress. Hold onto your racing helmets, folks, because the answer might be as unpredictable as a last-lap pass for the checkered flag!
Revving up speculations from last week, road racing expert AJ Allmendinger hinted at a full-time commitment, but with a twist!

The suspense is building faster than a race car at the Daytona Superspeedway.

But wait, the plot thickens! If Allmendinger opts for the Xfinity Series, Kaulig Racing might have a shiny spot waiting for Ty Dillon, who drives the #77 full-time in Cup for Spire Motorsports and #3 part-time for Richard Childress in Xfinity. The domino effect doesn’t end there, folks! Enter Carson Hocevar, a rising star in the truck racing world, lurking on the horizon as the top candidate for the vacated seat. The possibilities are as thrilling as a last-lap pass for the checkered flag!
In an interview with SiriusXM, he revealed that he’s open to whichever path Kaulig Racing chooses for him. “At the end of the day, I don’t have a preference,” AJ stated.
