Ned Jarrett is inducted into the Lowe's Motor Speedway Court of Legends.
The father-son duo of Ned and Dale Jarrett were inducted into Lowe’s Motor Speedway’s Court of Legends on Tuesday afternoon.

Dale Jarrett will close his career in the NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race on Saturday night.

“Ned and Dale Jarrett are champions on and off the race track, and it is an honor to induct them into our Court of Legends,” Lowe’s Motor Speedway President Humpy Wheeler said. “They are true Southern gentlemen who never forgot the most important part of this sport – the race fans.

“Be it in victory or defeat, they both were always very gracious and courteous, attributes many will remember more than their combined 82 victories and three championships.

Ned Jarrett won NASCAR titles in 1961 and 1965, while Dale Jarrett won the title in 1999.

Twenty-two drivers and owners have been inducted in the track’s Court of Legends.
 
Ned is one of the classiest people in NASCAR. I sure miss him in the broadcast booth! Incidentally, he and Dale were among the guests on tonight's special edition of Wind Tunnel. :)
