Stacy Compton is a racer’s racer who made his way to the NASCAR Cup Series in quick order. Compton (11:08) a native, of Hurst, VA, cut his teeth at South Boston Speedway racing late models, and the love for short track racing still burns bright inside of him. He tells us some of his most memorable stories, including his first Truck Series victory in Portland, starting on the front row of the DAYTONA 500, a friendly rivalry with Ron Hornaday Jr., and how he recently battled and beat a severe case of COVID-19. He now might just get back to what he loves the most – besides being a dad, of course – racing late models.
