SAD REPORT: Michael Jordan Has Officially announced departing from NASCAR and reason why……
Carl Edwards raced in the Cup Series for 13 years, beginning in 2004.
He won 28 races, grabbed 22 poles, and took the Xfinity Championship in 2007.
Yet, the Cup title remained out of reach, with heartbreaking finishing twice as runner-up.
Despite his relatively brief career, he couldn’t be deprived of cementing his name in NASCAR’s 75 Greatest Drivers.
Going ahead, after 8 years of retirement, this reunion opened the doors for NASCAR to deliver him a surprise that left him emotional.
NASCAR officially inducted Carl Edwards into the Hall of Fame on Feb 7th, 2025, along with Ricky Rudd and Ralph Moody.
The former Joe Gibbs Racing (JRG) star driver didn’t even try to give it a thought, “I thought the chance was zero, so I’m not even going to entertain that as a possibility” Carl Edwards shared in an interview, “I couldn’t believe it. It shocked me.”
He was sort of aware that his nomination for the Hall of Fame would be voted last year in May.
But he preferred to stay away from any sort of assumptions. It was his wife who led him to learn about the news first, upon landing in the Missouri from Alabama. She insisted he check his phone.
After accumulating a resounding 52% of the votes, it was enough to rebound his connection with the sport.
