Video: John Hunter Nemechek Spins During Darlington Cup Practice

During Saturday’s NASCAR Cup Series practice, Darlington Raceway showed some mercy to John Hunter Nemechek.

The LEGACY MOTOR CLUB driver was able to escape a long slide through the first set of corners without any substantial damage to his No. 42 Dollar Tree Toyota Camry XSE.

Nemechek, who is running a throwback paint scheme this weekend dedicated to his father Joe Nemechek’s iconic BellSouth No. 42, had just 14 laps on his tires prior to the spin.

The Mooresville, North Carolina-native is making his sixth NASCAR Cup Series start at the 1.366-mile facility this weekend, a racetrack at which he earned a top-10 finish during his rookie campaign in 2020.

Luckily, the 27-year-old driver was able to drive away from the incident and will be able to post a lap during Satruday afternoon’s qualifying session from Darlington.
