He said, “It’s something we both kind of expected. I’ve been trying to position myself to get me and my partners in the most competitive spot, and I feel like I’m experienced enough to take the next step competitively.”
LaJoie is aware that the team has been eyeing prospective drivers who could bring some money into the team. This is why he and the team are placing themselves on the market for prospective recruits and employers.
The driver confirmed talks with multiple teams and is confident of landing a better ride in 2021. The good news is that Corey LaJoie has the help of sponsors like Schluter Systems, Built Bar, and Drydene.
According to the 28-year-old, Brad Keselowski mentioned a model where drivers bring money to a team. This is why Corey was been able to snag partners who stuck with him and aided him in every way.

How has Corey LaJoie performed on the track?
Truthfully, LaJoie has enjoyed a fruitful season with Go Fas, despite a few mechanical failures. His average finish has improved by a lot, and it has only served to benefit the side.
“Go Fas has elevated my career and I’ve elevated their stock as a team,” LaJoie said. “It’s been a pretty good partnership the last two years. But I have to keep getting progressively better.”
Even if he does not land another NASCAR ride, Corey LaJoie is choosing to stay positive. In other words, he may try his hand elsewhere if nothing pans out in NASCAR.
However, he insisted, “I’ve made it this far. The competitors in the garage know what I’m capable of doing and they see it. Once I get in a car that’s fast, I know the results will come.”
