Over the years, a tale of children seamlessly stepping into their father’s racing shoes has become common in NASCAR. From the Earnhardts, Elliotts, Allisons, and Pettys, the stories of “like father, like son” have woven a layer of history alive. Notably, the sons of racing stalwarts like Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick have already carved out their presence as the future of the sport’s driving force.
Continuing this storyline, Hudson Logano, the elder son of Joey Logano, has entered the scene. Recently, Hudson accomplished a remarkable feat on the racetrack—a milestone that fills his father with pride and foreshadows a bright future for the young talent.
The achievement triggered nostalgia, harking back to Joey Logano’s own childhood victories when he earned the moniker “Sliced Bread,” a title bestowed upon him by Randy Lajoie. Joey Logano recently shared a photograph showcasing his son’s victory, sparking a surge of emotions that flooded the comment section as fans poured out their heartfelt feelings.

A new champion is emerging within the Joey Logano lineage
In 2019, Kevin Harvick set a heartwarming precedent by giving his son a ride after clinching the Cup championship. Inspired by this, Joey Logano harbored a similar aspiration for his son Hudson. In 2018, when Joey secured his championship, Hudson was a mere nine months old. Nevertheless, during the 2022 championship, Joey shared a cherished secret with his son—a bedtime ritual where he assured Hudson that he would win the pole and ultimately claim victory.
True to his word, Joey turned his promise into reality, after winning a race, delivering a memorable lap in his car with Hudson by his side, and the young Logano looked happy. As the 2022 season concluded, Joey Logano shared a video showcasing Hudson’s daily routine with Joey, carting on a dirt track.
Astonishingly, even at the tender age of five, Hudson exhibited a remarkable grasp of racing skills by winning a Youth Series race. Recently, Joey Logano proudly shared a bunch of photos on Twitter featuring Hudson seated in a dirt car, commemorating his triumph in the Youth Series. And captioned,
“Proud Father moment last night! Hudson scored his first official “W” 🏁🏆
