Joey Logano Journal: Wild Week in the South
From time to time Joey Logano writes an entry for his Journal at the Home Depot Racing website, here is the latest entry that was written on April 28, 2009.
So it was a pretty eventful week last week, on and off the track. First of all I got the chance to do something really cool on Wednesday. I had to do a media appearance for Darlington and part of the deal was to get driven around the track by Cale Yarborough! My first laps in a race car around Darlington and I have Cale Yarborough sawing at the wheel next to me. He came out in one of his old school firesuits, so cool. Talladega was a lot of fun also. Friday night I went to the dirt track and actually raced! I finished second to David Reutimann, but I have to tell you that was really fun. I can’t wait for Eldora now. The race weekend went well for both cars with wild finishes in both races. I pushed my Atlanta buddy David Ragan to the win in the Nationwide race and he was trying to help me at the end of the Cup race. I got that first top-10 finish in The Home Depot Toyota though. It’s big to be able to survive both races. The last three weeks we’ve gained a ton of momentum as a team, and I love short track racing so I am looking forward to this weekend in Richmond.


Joey was a rock star at Talladega!!! That was some fantastic drafting! Plus, I got to meet him, and that was amazing! GO JOEY!
