2025 Hopes and Expectations

The No. 4 Car had a lacklustre season last year with Ryan Ellis at the helm, and are looking for a bounce back there.  Brennan Poole showed some good moments last season, but there is definitely room for improvement.  Neither Poole nor Parker Retzlaff have won a race in the Xfinity Series, and the team’s best chance probably comes at drafting ovals.  Alpha Prime probably doesn’t have the cash to compete for the playoffs from a points perspective, but with the win-and-you’re-in model in place, they could sneak their way in there with a SuperSpeedway win.
