Glorious White-Knuckled, God-Fearing, Spun-Out-And-Half-Turned-Over Racing Stories

There aren't many times when the legendary voice of Ken Squire takes the backseat. But this story is an exception.

With the laps winding down in the 1993 Daytona 500, Dale Jarrett's job was simple: get to the lead. He found himself within striking distance of the front, and the Daytona 500 victory.

In the broadcast booth above, Ned Jarrett called the action for millions tuned into CBS. And to Ned's surprise, it was his job to call his son home to victory.

But before Jarrett could take the checkered, he had to get through two of NASCAR's toughest competitors. Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt.

Host Rick Houston and Ned Jarrett break down one of NASCAR's most iconic calls, and tell the story of the "Dale and Dale show" from the man who made the call.

This week, we keep it in the family. The Jarrett Family. And it's one you won't want to miss.

This one is about to get scrappy.

NASCAR has had its fair share of famous fights over the years. And odds are, John Dodson's been in a few of them. When tempers flare, Dodson seems to find himself in the middle of the action. Dodson is the scrapper, the enforcer, and he isn't backing down.

He has come face-to-face with some of NASCAR's heavyweights, staring down names as big as David Pearson. Dodson and host Rick Houston rehash some of NASCAR's biggest brawls, covering fights from the 1984 Firecracker 400 to the famed 1989 Winston All-Star race.

Get ready. This one is a Glorious, Bare-Knuckled ride that you'll have to hear for yourself.

Words. They can hurt. Especially when those words are rumors spread by peers, and even an entire industry. Just ask Phil Parsons.

Two years after winning his first Winston Cup race, Parsons found himself on the outside of the sport looking in. And a rumor had a lot to do with it.

During the off-season between the 1989 and 1990 seasons, Parsons had cataract surgery on his left eye, and the rumors began.

Word began to spread. “Phil Parsons has issues with his eye sight,” or “Parsons has serious issues,” and “Parsons is all but blind.”

Phil Parsons alongside host Rick Houston dive into the rumor mill that took the sport by storm, one so strong, it had lasting impacts on his career.

Let's hope there is a statute of limitations on this one, because Kyle Petty and Mike Beam are going to need it.

The year was 1981. Kyle Petty and crew chief Mike Beam were tasked with driving their race hauler from Texas World Speedway to their shop in North Carolina. What happens next is straight out of the movie Smokie and the Bandit.

Before making their run back to Petty Enterprises, Petty and Beam come in possession of hundreds of cases of Texas' own "Lone Star Beer." And as Kyle Petty put it, "You can't drink profit." But you can haul it. And a lot of it.

Kyle Petty and Mike Beam join host Rick Houston to recap a story you have to hear straight from the source. Was it highly illegal? Yes. Did they get caught? You'll just have to find out yourself.

You think you can mess with Buckshot Jones and get away with it? Think again.

In this Glorious White-Knuckled, God-Fearing, Spun-Out-And-Half-Turned-Over Racing story, Buckshot Jones isn’t going down without a fight. But this battle royal isn’t what you think it is.

Host Rick Houston and former NASCAR driver Buckshot Jones recount the days going toe-toe-toe in an all out prank war. There are stories of pies to the face, going up against David Pearson and owing some serious cash.

It’s a game of prankster and prey, and you’ll just have to listen to find out who comes out on top.

This story starts where Ricky Craven’s memory doesn’t.

Airlifted to the hospital out of Fort Worth, Texas, Ricky Craven suffered the worst accident of his racing career. And he was never the same.

The previous year, Craven suffered injuries in a savage crash at Talladega Superspeedway. Despite how serious the accident may have looked; Craven says he would still prefer to experience this wreck two or three more times than what he went through at Texas.

It was a hit that derailed a career. Ricky Craven, alongside host Rick Houston, walks you through never-before-heard details regarding his crash at Texas Motor Speedway. One so viscous, it altered the entire course of his life.

It’s a story of struggle, recovery and redemption, and you’re along for the ride.

Imagine a world where Dale Earnhardt drives only half of a season at Richard Childress Racing, and instead teams up with Junior Johnson for the 1984 season and beyond. A world where Earnhardt replaced Darrell Waltrip and teamed up with Neil Bonnett with Coors on the hood.

This world came closer to reality than you think.

NASCAR legend Junior Johnson played an integral role in this deal that almost changed the course of NASCAR history, and walks you through the entire situation. Could Earnhardt have driven for a different team? Could he have sported the Budweiser colors long before his son did? It’s a story that makes you question everything you witnessed, if this Earnhardt alternative reality came true.

Legendary NASCAR car owner Bud Moore received a letter a few days after he turned 18 years old, and it wasn’t a birthday card. Instead, it was Uncle Sam drafting him to fight overseas in World War II.

Bud was one of the first men who stormed the beach on D-Day, fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and survived multiple injuries on the battlefield. And he has a vivid story for every moment. He details his life before, during, and after the war that you can only hear from Bud himself. It is neither glorious nor spun out, it is a heroic tale from a man who gave the ultimate sacrifice to protect his country.

In the world of NASCAR racing there’s always been a game of give and take in the garage. Money is tight, and people need to make ends meet, even if it means cutting some deals.

Ronnie Thomas raced in the Winston Cup Series throughout the late 70s and into the late 80s. His career was the ultimate racing catch 22 - he could drive but needed the money to prove it. Thomas details his career, fighting for a chance to make it in the Cup Series by any means necessary. He describes various “off-the-book” encounters with big named NASCAR champions asking for “help” on track in exchange for money thrown his way.

It’s a story you won’t want to miss.

Get ready, because this episode is one heck of a ride. The 1978 fall race at Atlanta provided no shortage of chaos and confusion.

Before timing and scoring systems were implemented, races were scored and officiated by actual humans. This means mistakes are bound to be made, and advantages to be taken. This led to the question that everyone was asking after the race: who actually won?

Those officials had a lot on their plate. With drivers throwing the race, pleading their case and looking for any piece of evidence to prove they had rightfully won, there is a lot to keep track of. Hear from three NASCAR legends who were in contention on that puzzling day in Georgia: Richard Petty, Donnie Allison and Dave Marcis. Plus, long-before he became NASCAR CEO, Brian France was a race scorer and had a say in what happened on this November day. Hang on.
