October Fan of the Month

Jordan Hightower

Every month we put a Joey Logano Fan in the spotlight. This month’s fan of the month is Jordan Hightower a member of our Joey Logano Forum. He answers some questions for us.

Jordan, tell us a little bit about yourself.

I was born in May of 1990. I am attending college at the University of Arkansas – Fort Smith hoping to graduate with a Bachelor degree in Business Administration. My hobbies include sim-racing (http://www.iracing.com) and pretty much anything that has wheels and burns gas.

What is your favorite food and drink?

My favorite food is seafood, pretty much anything that comes out of the water I will enjoy. Chinese food is also very high on my list of favorites, the owner of the main Chinese restaurant in my city lives next door to me, so that’s pretty cool as well. My favorite drinks, good or bad, include Red Bull, Powerade, Gatorade, and good ole’ fashion water, preferably Dasani.

How did you get into NASCAR?

I started following in 2002 but not real heavily until 2003. My dad watched it occasionally and I found it interesting, also my best friend was a fan so we would watch the races together.

Have you met Joey Logano, and how did it go?

Yeah I met him at Texas in April at his souvenir trailer. It went really good, I got two hats signed because I forgot to bring the diecasts I wanted signed. I asked him a question about the Nationwide race he ran the previous day and he answered it without hesitation.

How did you become a fan of Joey Logano?

I first heard about him in 2005 when Mark Martin pretty much introduced him to the world as the real deal back in his Late Model days. I also thought it was really awesome that Joey and I were the same age, almost down to the day. I knew one day he would make it to NASCAR and I wanted to be one of his original fans.

Who are your favorite drivers besides Joey?

I would have to say my top five besides Joey are Michael Waltrip, Tony Stewart, Ryan Newman, Kevin Harvick, and Kyle Busch. I’m also pretty much a fan of anybody who drives a Toyota.

Out of all the racetracks you’ve been to, which is your favorite track and why?

For tracks that I’ve actually seen a race at I would say Texas because of the speed and usually great racing. My favorite track that I’ve been to but never seen a race is Daytona, that track is amazing!

Now that Joey Logano has gotten his first Sprint Cup win, at what track do you think Joey will get his second Career Sprint cup win at?

Homestead this year. A lot of rookies run really good at Homestead for some reason, not sure why either.

Thanks for the interview Jordan!
