Chase Briscoe, currently driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, has expressed his enduring passion for dirt racing, stating a strong desire to own or be part of a team in the World of Outlaws or High Limit Sprint Car Series. Despite his ongoing NASCAR commitments, Briscoe’s interest in sprint cars remains evident.

Briscoe’s early racing experience centered on 410 sprint cars. At age 13, he became the youngest driver to win a race in the category, surpassing Jeff Gordon’s previous record. His progression included participating in the Peak Stock Car Dream Challenge and making his debut in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West in 2013, eventually moving from Indiana to Charlotte to further his career through ARCA and into NASCAR.

During a recent interaction with fans on X, Briscoe addressed whether he would consider fielding a World of Outlaws or High Limit team. He responded: “WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE TO. Literally my dream. Just have to find the sponsorship for it or find a team that would be willing to allow me to be a part of theirs.”

Briscoe has previously taken steps toward ownership in motorsports. His organization, Chase Briscoe Racing, has operated intermittently since his days racing on dirt tracks. In 2024, car No. 5 from Chase Briscoe Racing competed in 35 events, with Briscoe sharing driving responsibilities with Karter Sarff. However, since joining Joe Gibbs Racing this year, he noted that his schedule has become more limited.

Discussing his enthusiasm for sprint cars, Briscoe has stated: “Sprint cars all day long.”

In NASCAR Cup Series competition this season with Joe Gibbs Racing, Briscoe is ranked eighth with 698 points. He has achieved ten top-five finishes and holds an average starting position of 10.4 after earning six poles so far. A victory at Pocono earlier this summer secured his entry into the playoffs.

Looking ahead to Daytona International Speedway and the upcoming Coke Zero Sugar 400 scheduled for August 23 at 7:30 p.m., Briscoe faces additional pressure as it will determine the final two playoff positions. Historically at Daytona, his best finish during the night race is fourteenth across nine starts.
