Past Fantasy Outlooks

2024

2023

Garcia wound up second in the ROTY chase last season, but he still had a very successful rookie campaign. He would grab three Top-5 and nine Top-10 finishes with his former team at McAnally-Hilgemann Racing. The 18-year-old talent now moves into the No. 13 Ford of ThorSport Racing that was piloted by Hailie Deegan last season. They'll not only have a new driver for 2024, but new sponsors and a new crew chief. So the No. 13 team is hitting the reset button to a good extent. However, it's the same team excellence that we've come to expect from ThorSport Racing. With Garcia behind the wheel, this should easily be a Top-10 team at season's end.

The soon to be 18-year-old (March) dipped his toes into the truck series pool last season to the tune of five starts. Garcia was reasonably competitive in those races, collecting a pair of Top-20 finishes and learning a lot of lessons in that seat time. He now moves to full-time and will compete in what is a very deep rookie class for the upcoming season. The good news is that veteran crew chief, Chad Norris, has been tabbed to guide Garcia this season. The two worked together last year and began establishing some chemistry. Garcia's background is not quite as deep as some of the other rookie drivers this season, so he faces an uphill battle to perform in this team's third truck.
