Spire's Chase Purdy makes feelings clear on future uncertainty with no deals for 2025 ahead of last race weekend

Chase Purdy revealed on Tuesday that his future in NASCAR is uncertain after Spire Motorsports did not reach out to him for a contract extension even in the final race weekend. Purdy signed up for the Mooresville-based team in the Craftsman Truck Series earlier this year and is currently racing for them.

Spire Motorsports fields three Truck Series cars: one for Rajah Caruth, another for Chase Purdy, and the third driven by multiple drivers, including Cup Series and Xfinity Series names such as Kyle Busch, Corey LaJoie, Connor Zilisch, and Clint Bower, to name a few.

In addition, they field three cars in the Cup Series: Justin Haley, Zane Smith, and Carson Hocevar. With so many drivers at the helm and only a few rides available, the Jeff Dickerson and T.J. Puchyr-owned team has yet to extend the contract with Purdy.

Pointing this out, the #77 Truck Series driver took to X, and shared an update. He wrote:

"One final time this weekend. I don’t have any deals for next year, so this weekend will be everything I got! Either way I am very thankful and blessed for all the opportunities and great people I’ve got to work with and be around! Let’s go out strong."

In January, Spire Motorsports announced the signing of Purdy for the #77 Chevrolet Silverado for the 2024 Craftsman Truck Series. He joined veteran race engineer and crew chief Jason Trinchere.
