Joey Logano knocked doors off in DIRTcar Nationals debut at Volusia Speedway Park (Video)

NASCAR driver Joey Logano took a private plane to race for $700; He drove from the back to the front and thrilled fans!

96 DIRTcar UMP modifieds have checked in to race at Voluisa Speedway Park this week. In Friday’s show, each car was thrown into a 15-lap feature paying $700-to-win.

Watch the video of Joey Logano’s DIRTcar Nationals debut below.

Every one of the cars made the feature race. And at night’s end, the track saw four new feature winners of the five modified events.

Last night, Chase Elliott made his debut in a USAC midget. But, he wasn’t the only NASCAR star to make a debut on the dirt track that night.

Joey Logano jumped a private airline to make a random appearance at the half-mile dirt track in De Leon Springs, FL and race for $700. The driver will head to Daytona International Speedway on Tuesday to run the Busch Clash at Daytona.

Justin Haley (#11) and Justin Allgaier (#7) also made an appearance in Friday’s show.

Logano was 48th of 80 modifieds in the race opening hot lap session. He didn’t touch the track again until the feature event.

The field is set by points in the modified division. As a result, Joey Logano started last on the field (19th). He then drove to front, finishing 3rd in Feature #1 on the night.

Richard Michael, Nick Allen, Chad Roush, Clay Harris and David Reutimann were declared the dirt mod feature winners for the night.

“I only got one gear, and it was to go,” Logano told DIRTVision pit reporter Chase Raudman in his post-race interview. “It was a good time, I finished third, that’s great, and learned a little bit. Got a little bit of damage to fix, and we’ll come back at it tomorrow night.”

Logano will return to to the Florida dirt track on Saturday night.
