Summary
Since 1950 The Wood Brothers Racing Team has been NASCAR's longest continually running team. Home to dozens of Hall of Fame Drivers, 99 wins at the sport's top level and race wins in seven different decades, NASCAR would not be who it is without The Wood Brothers. Since it's inception the team has been family owned and that doesn't look to change. Jordan Wood Hicks is the granddaughter of the team's founder, Glen Wood. She is now the co-owner and the Vice President of Communications. On the episode we talk about growing up in the garage, keeping secrets from your spouse, moving on from a fan favorite driver and what the future of NASCAR and The Wood Brothers looks like. Jordan describes the challenges that she had to go through to not only make her own name, but the struggle to be a female in a male dominated sport.
