Noah Gragson is welcoming 2025 with a New Year's resolution. The NASCAR driver said he will bring back the 'good days' energy in 2025 while showing his young and carefree side on social media.
Gragson is a 26-year-old professional stock car racing driver heading to Front Row Motorsports in the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. He previously drove the No. 10 Ford Mustang for the now-discontinued Stewart-Haas Racing team.
The Las Vegas native took to Instagram and wrote:
"The good days. Bringing this energy to 2025."
Noah Gragson wrote it on top of a video compilation of him having fun on the track. Part of the compilation was an old interview where he said:
"If I have to describe myself in one word, it would be very shy and not talkative... No, I'm just f*cking with you."
Gragson concluded 2024 with a one-year stint with Stewart-Haas Racing. He was signed to SHR after Legacy Motor Club released him for social media actions that didn't represent the team's values.
Driving the No. 10 SHR Ford, Gragson scored one top-5 finish at Talladega Superspeedway and seven top-10 finishes.
For the upcoming stint with Front Row Motorsports, the team has yet to announce the 26-year-old's racing number. He will compete alongside Todd Gilliland and possibly a third FRM driver, with Zane Smith expected to secure the seat.
Gragson will return to NASCAR on February 16 for the Daytona 500.

Noah Gragson expressed his gratitude for the opportunity Stewart-Haas Racing gave him in 2024. The one-year stint with the team allowed him to fulfill his goal of putting himself 'back on the map', saying he had a lot of fun doing so.
The former No. 10 SHR Ford driver said (via racer.com):
"I’m very grateful for Tony Stewart and Greg Zipadelli and everybody who has given me this opportunity over at Stewart-Haas. It’s a bummer what everyone is going through but for myself personally, I’m not content and I’m not satisfied with (what we’ve accomplished). But I’m confident to say I feel like I have somewhat earned an opportunity to race on Sundays."
He added:
"I still ride the waves of the highs are good and the lows are low and get frustrated like anybody. But to be able to have a bad run the prior week and bounce back the next week and put yourself back on the map. Last year … I don’t think we had a good run. Not one. It wasn’t fun. I’m having more fun."
Stewart-Haas Racing ceased its operations at the end of the 2024 season, concluding a 15-year run in the sport with Tony Stewart as a co-owner. The team won two Cup championships secured by Stewart in 2011 and Kevin Harvick in 2014.
The team will be rebranded to Haas Factory Team for the 2025 season fielding one car only from four.
Noah Gragson's new team, Front Row Motorsports, acquired one of the three SHR charters, with the transfer recently approved in court amid its lawsuit battle against NASCAR.
