Mike Looney is as humble as he is talented behind the wheel of a race car. The driver of the No. 87 Late Model Stock car, Looney (14:41) has made a name for himself on the short tracks of Virginia and has earned fans all across the Commonwealth. His career has been based on perseverance, which makes it no surprise he took a car with a failing clutch and drove from last to sixth on Saturday at South Boston. We dive in with Mike about that valiant effort, his driving career and his life outside of racing, which includes time at his farm and in the machine shop. He’s been on the brink of a national title before, but he doesn’t base his career on his time spent in the Winner’s Circle. What keeps him racing? The love of it, of course. In our Commonwealth Closing Topic, we discuss the proper way to eat a SoBo Bologna Burger, per the foremost authority on it, Elliott Sadler.
