Kasey has made the chase only twice in his career but he has won eleven times in his career including a six win season in 2006. Kasey has a lot of potential still and he has proven how good he is on several occasions from 2005 where he dominated in Richmond to earn his first career win to 2009 where he really brought back Richard Petty Motorsports to the spotlight by making the Chase and earning 2 huge wins along the way. Kasey has proven to fans that he is a championship caliber driver but he just doesn’t seem to be with the right team in order to win a championship.
Kasey has been in the 9 car his entire career but the team itself has went through so many changes in the seven years of existence either it has been crew changes or ownership changes, the point is that Kasey’s team has always been in a state of mass confusion that has caused this young man not to be a challenger for a championship in the Sprint Cup Series.
The NASCAR community have heard that Kasey is considering himself a free agent after this season so teams are already lining up to offer this kid a ride but where would he be able to go in order to be a championship contender? Well we know that Stewart-Haas Racing is trying to expand to three cars for the 2011 season and that could be a good fit for Kasey except that Kasey and Tony Stewart haven’t always see eye to eye on things and that could cause some tension for that young team. So maybe Stewart-Haas Racing won’t be the team to sign Kasey, instead he could sign with Joe Gibbs Racing right? Well people saw what happened to Richard Childress Racing last year when they expanded to four cars so the motto “less is more”, may apply to Gibbs and if that is the case then there just simply won’t be any room for Kasey.
