Joey Logano shuts down possibility of racing in other motorsports series

As a three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion, is there anything outside of stock car racing that Joey Logano wants to accomplish? For many drivers, proving themselves in another discipline can be a proving ground of sorts.

However, unlike Kyle Larson and drivers like him, Joey Logano has never been a multi-discipline driver. He has been on the stock car pipeline his entire life and reached the heights of his sport multiple times.

However, Logano is a Team Penske driver. They have their hands in all kinds of racing. So, the opportunity is theoretically there if he wants it. He just doesn’t want it.

“No. I love NASCAR racing. I’m a person, like a creature of habit, you know what I mean?” Logano recently said on the Rubbin is Racing podcast. “I find something I like that’s what I’m going to do. … My wife, I married her, she’s the first girl that I dated when I was 16, that was the girl I love, I married her. You go to a restaurant, you find something I like, I am going to eat that same thing every time I go there. I don’t need to try anything else. That’s who I am. I love NASCAR racing, that was my dream, that’s what I set on, that’s the only thing I want to do.”

Joey Logano is pretty clear. He does not want anything to do with another series. He has perfected his craft in stock car racing and plans to use it to its fullest extent. He already has three championships at 34 years old.

How many championships can Joey Logano win?

At his age, Joey Logano could have another ten years in NASCAR as a winning driver. During that time, he could win one, two, hell even three more, championships. His three have all come within seven seasons of each other, two in the last three.

With the way Team Penske has seemingly mastered the playoffs in the Next Gen car, it wouldn’t be shocking. Logano averages about three wins a year with Penske. Depending on when those races fall, that means a strong playoff run if not a Championship 4 appearance.

While Logano doesn’t seem interested, I would like to see Penske and other teams put Cup Series drivers in the Daytona 24 Hours. Imagine if Logano, Ryan Blaney, and Austin Cindric were on the same IMSA team against Ross Chastain, Shane van Gisbergen, and Connor Zilisch from Trackhouse?

Joey Logano does seem very content with what he has accomplished. When you have three championships, it is pretty easy to feel sure of yourself, I imagine. He will go down as an all-time great.
