  • Episode 333 -- Jamie McMurray on Horrible Stint with Roush Racing, Daytona 500 Redemption
    Feb 12 2025
    In the final installment of our interview, Jamie McMurray not-so-fondly remembers his time with Roush Racing, his victory in the 2010 Daytona 500 and how he wound up parting ways with team owner Chip Ganassi and the contentment it EVENTUALLY brought him. We then take a swing at the July 12, 2007 issue of NASCAR Scene. Jamie McMurray beats Kyle Busch to the checkered flag in a heart-pounding finish at Daytona, in a race that saw Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Tony Stewart and Denny Hamlin not playing nice with each other. Mother Nature does Boris Said dirty and a there’s a feature on the new Roush Fenway Racing alliance.

  • Episode 332 -- Jamie McMurray on His Miracle Winston Cup Win, Mental Skills and the Best NASCAR Finish Nobody Remembers
    Feb 5 2025
    After a quick chat with the soon-to-be retired Chris Powell, president and general manager of Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Jamie McMurray tells about that miracle first Winston Cup win at Charlotte and driving as a substitute for the injured Sterling Marlin. He also talks about the mental side of the sport … and if anybody should be talking about being mental … it’s the hosts of The Scene Vault Podcast. We then dig into the October 17, 2002 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Jamie McMurray wins the Winston Cup race at Charlotte … which was a HUGE shock. Jeff Burton wins the Busch Series race at Charlotte … which was anything BUT a shock. Jeff’s mad about racing back to the caution and his Roush Racing teammate is mad about racing … period … while not being able to see out of his windshield. Finally … co-host Steve Waid INSISTS that there was NO WAY that the point system that was in place at the time was going to change.

  • Episode 331 -- Jamie McMurray on the Perception He Was Scared to Race and Going Cup Racing with Chip Ganassi
    Jan 29 2025
    We start this week with a tribute to the late Bill Baumgardner, the BACE Motorsports team owner who won three consecutive Busch Series championships in 1995-97 with drivers Johnny Benson and Randy LaJoie. Then, in the first of what will be three installments of our interview, Jamie McMurray talks about the perception that he was afraid to race hard, getting hooked up with Winston Cup team owner Chip Ganassi and how he ended up filling in for Sterling Marlin late in the 2002 season. We then take a look at the July 23, 1998 issue of Winston Cup Scene. There’s a massive series of stories in this issue dealing with recent injuries to drivers and what could be done about it safety-wise … and from the seriousness of that topic … we move on to the silliness of a Go Kart race with Buckshot Jones … and Tony Stewart.
