From Driver to Chassis Builder: How Jay Hedgecock Built Winners

This week on the Dale Jr. Download, Dale sits down with legendary chassis builder Jay Hedgecock to talk about 55 years in short track racing, from racing micro midgets at 15 to building winning cars for Dale Earnhardt, Richard Petty, and many more. Jay shares stories from racing in the late 70s, battling Dale Sr. at places like Martinsville and Caraway, and what it was like during an era when local tracks were packed every Saturday night. He also opens up about serious crashes, concussions, and why he chose to focus on short track racing instead of chasing a full-time Cup career. The conversation dives into the evolution of chassis building, innovation in the 80s and 90s, the cost of racing today, and the future of the CARS Tour. At 70 years old, Jay is still building cars in High Point and helping shape the next generation of racers. It is a candid, behind-the-scenes look at the people, risks, and passion that keep short-track racing alive.
