The Scene Vault Podcast

This week in the second and final installment of our interview, Jerry Nadeau talks about the accident that ended his career and his struggle to find peace and contentment in the years since.

We then dig into the May 8, 2003 issue of Winston Cup Scene.

Joe Nemechek’s Winston Cup victory at Richmond is overshadowed by Jerry Nadeau’s career-ending accident. Some … including Jeff Burton … are left wondering why SAFER barriers have yet to be installed at the track.

Jeff Green and Steve Park have weekends to forget and wind up trading rides the following week. Darrell Waltrip has a story to tell about one of the most controversial incidents of his career while Jimmy Spencer tries to barbeque his brother.

Finally … Tony Liberati is fighting for everything he’s worth to keep his race team intact.

This week's episode is dedicated to the memory of NASCAR Hall of Famer Rex White, who died July 18.

First, we've got a candid interview with Rex and his longtime friend, Donald Johnson, who served as Rex's crew for a year back in the 1950s. Then, we get some perspective on Rex's life and career from Rick Minter, the former Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter who was responsible for bringing Rex back into the public eye.

Jerry Nadeau goes from racing in Russia on ice while fighting off a SEVERE case of food poisoning to spotting for Morgan Shepherd and trying to make a go of it with Melling Racing to victory lane with Hendrick Motorsports.

We then tackle the November 23, 2000 issue of Winston Cup Scene.

Jerry Nadeau dominates at Atlanta, but it’s a late-race caution that gets him back into position to regain the top spot and score the first Winston Cup victory of his career.

It’s Darrell Waltrip’s last race and former foes Rusty Wallace and Dale Earnhardt give him some going-away gifts. UPS signs a big-bucks and ugly car deal with Dale Jarrett and Robert Yates Racing, while Kevin Lepage and Jack Roush miss out on a deal with THE all-time home run king … Hank Aaron.

Finally, there’s a masterpiece of a column by a certain Winston Cup Scene writer about one of the most memorable moments of his career.
