Joey's parents encouraged him to pursue his interest in racing when he was in elementary school.

Joey Logano Controversies

Joey Logano may give off the vibe of a fun-loving individual but he has had his fair share of altercations and they have been brutal. In 2010, the 2-time Cup Series champion was spun around on track in Pocono by Kevin Harvick, and he did not hold back afterward. He charged towards Harvick but was held back. In the post-race interview, Logano said, "It's probably not his fault, you know. His wife wears the firesuit in his family, tells him what to do.”

He and Kyle Busch got into a huge brawl as well in 2017 after Logano spun the then-Joe Gibbs Racing driver in Vegas. Busch got his Rowdy on as he went after Logano that day and it was an ugly scene. Things have calmed down between them now but the 2 former Cup Series champions do share the occasional banter at times.

Joey Logano even took a dig at fans earlier in 2023, calling them spoilt as NASCAR was one of the few sports where they could meet and interact with the drivers a little bit before the races. "Our fans are spoiled! And I love our race fans, but think about other sports for a second? When are you going to meet an NFL player? Can you access an NFL player, anytime, like three hours before the game? NO!"
