2019 Fantasy Outlook

Dean makes the jump from the ARCA Series to the Gander Outdoors Truck Series in 2019. The 24-year-old driver will run for Rookie of the Year, and make a strong bid for that award in the upcoming season. Dean nabbed two victories and 27 Top-10 finishes over the last three seasons in ARCA, collecting a pair of Top 6 points finishes along the way. He's done all he can do at that level, and now it's time to move up to stiffer competition. Young's Motorsports will put him in the No. 12 Chevy Silverado and pair him with crew chief, Jeff Stankiewicz. This team was part-time last season with a handful of different drivers, and only made five events. So the expansion to full-time racing will come with some bumps along the way. Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
Dean will make the jump from ARCA to full-time racing this season in the Gander Outdoors Truck Series. He will pilot the team's No. 12 Chevy SIlverado and make a bid for Rookie of the Year in 2019. Veteran crew chief, Jeff Stankiewicz, will head up the team's efforts. Dean grabbed one win and 10 Top-10 finishes last season en route to a sixth-place finish in the final ARCA standings. The 24-year-old driver brings a lot of potential to the table for this growing race team.
