Joey Logano, at the young age of seventeen, has great things going for him. While most kids would be busy preparing for the SATs and planning which college to go to, Logano is already setting his sights on conquering the Nextel cup and the Busch series. The moment he turns eighteen this May of 2008, he can soon compete in two of NASCAR�s big league races.
Logano was discovered by Mark �Mr. Consistency� Martin, one of NASCAR�s legendary racers. Martin called Logano the �real deal� and has boldly announced that great things are to be expected from the young racer. Logano has since been performing as well as Martin had thought him to be. Mark Martin was also the same person who prophesied that Matt Kenseth was going to be a superb, champion racer and we all know that Kenseth has been winning races left and right since Martin�s �prediction�. The same can be confidently said about Logano�s on �track performance.
The future is speeding off in the right direction for Joey Logano as he conquers the road course, oval, tri � oval and quad � oval racetracks. But what�s probably best about this racing prodigy is his attitude. According to sports.yahoo.com �Seeing how quickly things have developed for their son has been both exhilarating and scary for Logano's parents. They're ecstatic about his future, but worried about how fame and fortune might change him. At the same time, they have a tremendous amount of trust in their son, because they've watched first-hand how hard he's worked and how driven he is to be the best.� The knowledge that his achievements have been hard � earned makes for good grounding for the young racer.
A well � grounded champion! Now that�s a perfect combination!
