    Mar 12 2025
    In the third and final installment of our interview, Jeff Hensley talks about what it meant to win the 1990 Busch Series championship with his dad Hubert, a parting of the ways with driver Chuck Bown and his passion for the sport that still burns bright. We then tackle the October 21, 1993 issue of Winston Cup Scene. The Unocal/Rockingham pit-crew race is coming up and Scene takes an in-depth look at past winners, while Chuck Bown and Jeff Hensley score what would turn out to be their final win together. Robert Pressley gets a new ride with former foe and future friend Rick Mast after being let go by team owner Dennis Welch … and Bobby Allison does Bobby Allison things.

    Episode 336 -- Jeff Hensley on How a Random Conversation Led to Sponsorship and a Championship
    Mar 5 2025
    Jeff Hensley remembers how a random conversation at Martinsville led to sponsorship for the next SIX YEARS … AND a Busch Series championship. But before all that can take place … he and driver Chuck Bown nearly freeze to death at a rest stop. Hubert Hensley had told his boy to fix the truck they were in … but did he listen?!? NOOOOOOOOO … We then check out the May 10, 1990 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Dale Earnhardt FINALLY wins at Talladega in a race that saw Greg Sacks come fairly close to pulling off the SECOND major upset of his career. Neil Bonnett announces that he won’t be able to race for another year after he sustained a serious head injury earlier in the year at Darlington. And … it’s a battle of the Hensleys at South Boston.
