Pretty much every track in the state has banned him. Video on the FB. Disgraceful. https://thecapitalsportsreport.com/2022/04/24/driver-hunter-rich-gets-multiple-lifetime-bans-after-attacking-track-official/ Video at Link. WTF?

Out of curiosity what chassis you run? At the end my buddy was running a 4 bar Mastersbilt by Mars. Last couple years see more MB Custom chassis in late model and modifies in the area.

We were at this show last year for the late model feature and a nasty crash but with no injuries. He was leading at the time. The 89 is a MB Custom the cage held up good and the car was back on the track 2 weeks later. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2086096248196854 Edited April 25, 2022 by Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 22 hours ago, Jimmy Snacks said: I like this lap around Darlington with Cale…. Read books on both Cale and Junior both good reads. Junior Johnson's book Brave in Life covers his life from childhood to when he got out of Nascar. Junior was not a very trusting person and a hands on owner. One time he suspected someone on the team was sharing setups with another team. He had the guys setup the car in a way that he know would not work the day before they were going to load the car. That evening he called a guy he could trust and they went back to the shop and changed the setup to what Junior wanted. At the race there was a car that a while back had suddenly started running up front that normally was a mid pack car. That weekend the car was really off the mark and Junior just observed his team to see who was talking to who. By the end of the weekend Junior had one less crewman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that growing up as a moonshiner Junior really learned to watch his back and developed good instincts about people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a big book reader but I've read his book Brave in Life twice and well worth the read. Covers his childhood, moonshine days, nascar and his family life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched Matt through the years racing locally. Kirk Shelmerdine was ahead of his time when he was a crew chief according to my buddy that worked for Chidress when Kirk was there. He basically got burnt out and is now a professional gambler. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
