NASCAR and family members...?

I found it interesting that Casey Mears' dad drives his motorcoach and Ryan Newman's dad is a gas man on his crew. Does anybody else know of any drivers who have family members working for them?

    this is a family oriented sport.i would say just about everybody that works the pits or drives has a cousin or uncle or some type of family member.

    the earnhardts are also related to the euries.cousins and uncles.

    the earnhardts are also related to the hmiel family.

    also shawna robinson is married to the ex-gasman for dale sr.,jeff clark.

    Dales sister doesn't run his company. His step mother Teressa does. She owns 51% and Dale owns 49% of the company. Dales crew chief Tony Eury Jr. is his Uncle and most of his pit crew are family members.

    Dale Jarrett's brother-in-law is Jimmy Makar, former Cup Champion crew chief. now a senior VP at JGR.

    Lots of family members run their relative's companies or fan clubs: Tony Stewart's mom and sister, for example.

    Junior's sister does run many of his business interests, including working at JR Motorsports, (watch SpeedTV "Payback") and she is married to Jimmy Elledge, who is Reed Sorenson's crew chief. And of course, Junior works for his stepmom at DEI. So I think he might get the prize for the most relatives in the sport! :)
