Junior Johnson as well as Moonshine
Has anyone tried Junior Johnson's Moonshine? Having worked with Junior on Budweiser Racing and again on Winston Cup, I'd love to look this product do well. When I was the Vice-Chairman at Doe Anderson I asked Junior to come in to the agency and talk about NASCAR since we were handling 8 nascar teams and doing the Winston Cup work at the time.
Junior was awesome and gave an amazing talk. One story he told, was about how he had filled the frame tubing of his car with little steel ball bearings so they would move as the car moved and support the car with cornering. He said it was working great until he crashed and the little ball bearings spilled out all over the track, causing some crashes which the track announcer said was due to the oil spill coming from Juniors car!
Another story he told us about was how he was winning the race and he was told by his crew over the radio that NASCAR was going to inspect his car's engine as soon as he won the race, well Junior early he couldn't let that happen so as he passed the finish line he put it in first and blew his engine. Needles to say there was nothing for NASCAR to inspect.
And now for my last reason to run out and try Junior's moonshine. When my kids were at Forsyth Country Day (elementary school) Junior and his wife joined the school, Junior had a 2 year old while in his late 60's. If that's not reason enough to purchase a bottle, nothing else will.
Here is a great quote from Junior:"Most people do not have the guts to live the life I've lived, and most people who have the guts don't have the sense."
