Any word if he will race in the playoffs and the final or if he's still not feeling well and will focus on 2026?

Some socials are reporting he’s out for SMX. Did he ever let anybody know what his injuries were? Did he just overdo it in the season and  became extremely fatigued and needs to recover?

That bbq, potato salad, and shiner is just what he needs. 

And maybe some test and epo to be safe.

Apparently low cortisol. He said at Budds his plan was to race SMX but he was still having bad days. In his Budds interview he looked like he had put some weight on which is probably a good thing.

It’s physically impossible for these guys to train and compete as hard as they do for the amount of time they’re required to do it.

No, like all sporting professionals, you have to manage the work load throughout the year.

And eat (fuel your body) to compensate for the heavy workload.

Tomac has commented on this many times. I believe at this point in his career he’s doing very little on the bike during the week and enough off bike training to maintain his base fitness but not burn himself out.

Where did you get that info?

 

If his problem was only due to low cortisol levels, he could instantly fix it by taking cortisol pills, which also go by the name of Cortef.

Some janky website called RacerX. At the bottom you can see a statement from AP.

Manage a workload and completing for race wins is something different. Arron was all out this year, in SX and MX. Mookie and JCoop are the only ones that made it through the seasons…and they weren’t ever competing for wins in my opinion. It’s a huge accomplishment to make every round. I’m not taking that away form them.

Ok thanks I saw his post. 

He either has a pituitary gland problem or adrenal insufficiency to have continued low cortisol levels, and his cortisol levels would instantly be increased if he took cortisol or cortef, so he has some other issues going on as well that he is not mentioning. Also, a malfunctioning pituitary gland can cause fatigue for other reasons.

I just hope he gets better.

When Aldon was on Pulp a few weeks ago he mentioned hm racing with a bad sinus infection and that sounded like the start of his issues, He didn't go anymore in depth than that though.

AP7 on his gram talked about a sinus infection & his #,s being off . What ever that means his sinus infection didn’t look that bad. Your face in different parts will show a sinus infection & you,ll look like hell.  He looks tired but not he’ll like.

I have a very bad sinus infection currently and you couldn't tell I was having one at all (other than symptoms that didn't go away). I'm now heavily on antibiotics and imflammation medicines. Really hope Plessinger takes his time to recover

I performed surgery on others & myself.  Remember the deep gash on my shin to the bone ? I forgot about the stitches on the rd. I used a hunting knife to cut into the skin to get them out.  I cut a fatty tumor out on myself too, a lot of blood on that 1.  My dr months later said plz don’t perform surgery on yourself. Haha 50+ treatments for hazmat inhilation bad 1,s where you can’t breath nor out.  Exhaust , oil, antifreeze poisoning. Anti biotics & Prednisone that will kick anything’s azz.  And a truckers dream pill you can run 30+ hrs super easy.  Believe it or not it’s legal .

I think AP should leave Bakers place and go train with Tomac.. Eli seems to be healthy all season long so he must be doing something right.Not counting his injuries.  Just his fitness.

Toyota has had a Camry in NASCAR since 2007..

He has to take it easy, if so, otherwise it could seriously ruin him.
