Joe Gibbs Racing jackman Derrell Edwards joins Davey Segal (8:30) to discuss how he went from a kid from Baltimore, to a High Point University basketball player to one of the best jackmen in the NASCAR Cup Series. He details his childhood and how it's shaped him into the man he's become today, keeping his mind focused on the task at hand while dealing with a loved one in failing health, how he's developed the aura of winning and why manifesting is so crucial to his success.
Edwards also explains how his winning mindset has permeated the No. 20 team at Joe Gibbs Racing, the chemistry that the team has developed over 4+ years together, how fast a 4-tire stop can/will get, why a driver change impacts a pit crew more than you'd think, why the jackman is like the quarterback of the pit crew, how impactful switching from five lugs to one was for a jackman and why flying is an undercovered aspect of pit crews doing their jobs.
Plus, how he got involved with NASCAR in the first place, his humble beginnings with Richard Childress Racing, grinding his way to the top, why he always opts to pay it forward and help out younger athletes, the importance of family in his life and more, including what's next to accomplish in his professional career.
Davey also recaps Ryan Blaney's win at Nashville, previews Michigan and Papa Segal pays homage to Pop Pop.
