Just to clarify, Jesse was on the lead lap and racing for position when the incident occurred. The flagman never gave Jesse the move-over flag and the series does not notify traffic that the leaders are behind them. In short, Jesse had no idea the leaders were behind him.

FTF, Jesse needs to understand that he’s still in the “seat time” position. There’s no sense in getting upset, angry or depressed about not being the fastest thing on the track. Slow down and focus on the way the car feels and reacts to all the millions of differences in each track so you can LEARN how to get faster. Nobody can teach him feeling. It takes seat time! Just so you understand, I’m not getting down on Jesse! AT ALL! Just saying that he shouldn’t be upset in taking whatever place he gets in the near future. It’s always great to win, but it’s always better when you know exactly how you did it, and how to do it again. Mucho cudos to the top dog for taking it like the champ I see him as! He’s a great leader/example of how a true champion should be! #JosephJoiner!

Man it sucks for them both but it sure looked like the second place car got up under Jesse and turned him into Joseph. It’s racing just glad they weren’t injured. Love you guys stay safe.

I’m not late model driver but I have noticed how smooth Joseph is in whatever car he is driving and how Jessie is always chopping on the wheel when he drives. I know it will take time but that may be one huge issue I see just from Watching the videos. Smooth is fast and Joseph has for sure proven that! Great job guys and even better attitudes. Way to represent the one on the back of your cars!! HTF

Hey Jesse you did a good job, hard to drive when 00 has your back end raised up. It’s just a racing accident and both of you live to race another day! Keep getting faster and HTF! Joseph you definitely had the fastest car there, but, things out of your control decided otherwise. Y’all keep your heads up! Let’s go get em next time! HTF! 🏁🏁🏁

Jesse here is a little trick that helped a buddy of mine back in the 90's. Kind of old school but it works. Put a 1989 penny in your left shoe (not the sock), when you get into the car put your left foot in first, tap the brake 6 times, and open and close your visor 3 times. Do this in any order. But before all of that, write your favorite Days of Thunder quote on a post-it note and put that in your right front pocket. Try it.

All I am going to say Joseph you did a great job all around and I am so sorry you didn’t win. But you are Bigger for it.

I know Jonathan tried to keep everyone going in a good place at the end , but when he walked by the 56 car he whistled the oh he## this car has alot of work needed before the next race . Jesse kept blaming himself , but , he lacks the experience , I think , to always make the right decision, even when he isn't totally the blame !!!! I just hope that they can get back to the happy at the end no matter the outcome, that they are always on at the end . Good luck guys and you too Wheelman #10 , I love watching you sling the car through the turns .

Joseph, you looked very strong. Great bite coming off the corner and in traffic you seemed smooth. Traffic is part of racing as much as any other part when your the leader.

I'm glad you all are alright great video I feel bad for all of you but enjoyed the show

Just a thought about the 56. Maybe put the left rear shock back where it was originally, could give it more bite.

Thanks for showing the reply.

I know Jesse is still going through his learning curve, in my opinion this car is not handling correctly or is not setup to match his driving style or feel. Seems like he is constantly chasing it around the track. I assume you are trying different things to change the handling of the car for him, but the car seems loose and lacking forward drive. Which tells me it may not be so much Jesses driving but the car is affecting his ability to drive it. You can tell he has improved his wheel control but you can only control so much if you are dealing with an ill handling car. Just throwing some ideas out there to hopefully make his learning curve a little easier. Jesse I know you are bummed out by the wreck but that is racing and you was clearly wrecked by the 00 car. All in all a good night of racing unfortunately didn't go in your favor. Love watching the vids keep up the good work guys.

@scracer24c Thanks for the rant I could not have said it any better. You also brought more insight on what I was saying. If you watch the vids you can see Jesse has improved a lot for what he is working with. Yes the first couple nights he was sawing the wheel a lot and I teased about it hopefully in a good way. Before going any farther I worked on race cars but never drove one so I always try to encourage people not degrade them, if I had it wasn't intentionally. In my opinion I felt he done pretty damn good for the first time in a LM and by watching the vids he is improving a lot. So like you said there comes a time you can no longer blame it on the driver you have to search for other solutions. I personally believe they are getting to that point. If the driver doesn't have the equipment to match his style or compete against other drivers it makes his job much harder to perform. Either way Jesse you keep doing what you are doing and it will come to you no doubt in my mind.

Good job guys. That's just part of racing. There will be a lot more races. You had the car to beat and everyone knew it. You did exactly what you went to do, had the best car and got Jesse faster. Just some bad luck. Keep your heads up and stay after it. Good luck!!

First I feel Jesse is being very careful and not tearing up the car and it takes time to get comfortable and confident in your self.Keep pushing you will get it and Joseph can drive he needs to get some big sponsors and race with the big boys.

Man that sucks you were killing it!

Jessie pick up your head and put a smile on your face. I've been in your shoes. There was nothing you could've done differently. As far as I can see the only car that was driving rough was the 00. He could've let off and dropped down. Joseph it you did a great job all night long. Keep Hunting the Front boys!

AHHHHHHH the beauty of racing the same class with family and friends lol. It happens fellas. Just gotta move past and keep on huntin the front 😜

As bummed out as I am for Joseph, there are bigger things in life. A victory at the race track feels good for a moment, but a victory with Jesus last forever. Proud of you guys and for the positive attitude even though it is a bummer, but as a role model being positive in the face of adversity will be far more valuable then being mad and showing it. Joseph, you will get another win on a big stage. You’re an amazing driving pushing ANY car you drive to the edge of it’s limits. Jesse, stick with it and don’t let this slow you down brother! I only wish I had the opportunity to drive one of these cars in packing laps so I’m living vicariously through you, and I think a lot of others might feel the same way! You have a special opportunity, stick with it and listen to your immediate peers around you. They’re giving you sound advice it sounds like, even though they rib you a little too in the process.
