[autotag]Cole Custer[/autotag] spent three years with Stewart-Haas Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series before the team moved him to the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2023. Custer then won the Xfinity Series championship and returned to Stewart-Haas Racing for the 2024 season. However, could the driver of the No. 00 car be on the way to a new race team?
According to NASCAR spotter Brett Griffin on his Door, Bumper, Clear, there are “a lot of rumors” that Custer will replace Michael McDowell in the No. 34 car at Front Row Motorsports. In a shocking development, McDowell will replace Zane Smith in the No. 71 car at Spire Motorsports, leaving the No. 34 car open for the 2025 NASCAR season.
Front Row Motorsports recently increased its partnership with Ford to a Tier 1 status, and the organization has improved in 2024. That would only become better if Stewart-Haas Racing leaves NASCAR. Custer would be a great fit at Front Row Motorsports and could lead the Ford-backed race team into a new, competitive era starting in 2025.
