Ned Jarrett, NASCAR legend and two-time Cup champ, died at 93, leaving behind a legacy etched in 50 wins, championship titles, and the record for biggest race victory margin. Known as “Gentleman Ned” for his calm demeanor, he became a beloved voice in broadcasting for CBS, famously cheering his son Dale to victory in the 1993 Daytona 500. The Jarrett family’s racing legacy continued as Dale won the Cup in 1999, making them the second father-son duo to do so. NASCAR CEO Steve ODonnell praised Ned as a fierce competitor with a kind heart, an ambassador for the sport for over 60 years. His family remembered him as a devoted family man and true friend — a life lived fully, leaving an indelible mark on racing history.
