Episode 83: Jesse Love

Not many 15-year-olds are champions in any major racing series, but Jesse Love can call himself one—the youngest in ARCA Menards Series West history at that. The wise beyond his years Menlo Park, California kid joins Davey this week to discuss his dominant 2020 season that saw him win three times and lead the series in virtually every statistical category. Hear why Love believed he was the favorite to win the title before the season even started with Bill McAnally Racing, and why he fell short of preseason expectations for himself despite being crowned champion. Plus, the two dive deep into his racing upbringing (including the influence from Jeff Gordon and John Bickford), his time spent on dirt with Keith Kunz Motorsports and their incredible stable of talent, why he was always eyeing stock car racing, having the support of Toyota through his development and a speak peek of what he’ll be doing in 2021.
