The #1 NASCAR content creator on YouTube, Eric Estepp hosts Out of the Groove, a daily talk show covering news and trending topics in the NASCAR fan community.

Dodge is talking big about a potential Daytona 500 return, Tony Stewart is teasing more Truck Series races, and winter weather has already thrown a wrench into NASCAR’s early-season plans. This video breaks down a busy news cycle with real implications for 2026 and beyond.

  • Can Dodge realistically make the Daytona 500 grid just one year from now?
  • How serious is Tony Stewart about expanding his Truck Series schedule past Daytona?
  • What does the Bowman Gray weather delay mean for the Clash weekend?
  • Is NASCAR fast-tracking Ram and Dodge out of necessity or long-term vision?

Between schedule changes, star-studded Truck Series entries, and ambitious OEM timelines, there’s a lot happening beneath the surface. Dodge’s push toward Cup racing raises questions about feasibility and sustainability, while Tony Stewart’s comments leave the door open for some must-watch one-off appearances later in the season.
