Jeff Burton is one of the greatest drivers to ever come out of The Commonwealth of Virginia. What if we told you there was a time he almost wasn’t a race car driver at all? The tough times early in his career molded Jeff (8:15) into the fiery competitor he is today. We dive into his career as he came up through late models at South Boston Speedway, starting a team with his father, his first races in the then-Busch Series, the “worst year of my life” and why one win at Martinsville changed the trajectory of his career. From his highlights on track to his broadcasting career, Burton has some great stories to share. We also preview Richmond Raceway’s NASCAR Playoffs Weekend and get Jeff’s thoughts on his time at one of his favorite tracks.
