Truthfully speaking, this new deal could be a big boon for his career. This is because the agency can help boost his standing in NASCAR and make him more lucrative in the driver market for the Xfinity and Cup Series.
What lies in the future for the popular NASCAR driver?
In 2020, he made his full-time Truck debut and managed to pick up two wins. To make matters even better, he finished second in just his rookie season, thus establishing himself as a future star.
For the coming season, Smith will surely be a major contender for the NASCAR Truck title. The 21-year-old has his entire NASCAR career ahead of him and is a hugely talented driver.
