From Navy to Nascar – Jesse Iwuji
Jesse Iwuji graduated from the Naval Academy in 2010, and served as an active-duty surface warfare officer. He started taking an interest in Nascar, and soon found himself on the racetrack. His career began to flourish as he was promoted to the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, which is the only series in all of NASCAR to race modified production pickup trucks. “I’ve gotten to race a ton of different cars on a ton of different tracks like Daytona, Talladega, Charlotte [Motor Speedway], Pocono, Sonoma, you name it,” he said. “It’s been a pretty incredible journey.”
