  • The 2022 season put dirt track racer Jonathan Davenport in a league of his own. Yet, many don’t know the man behind the “Superman” moniker he’s known for at raceways across America.
    When the lights of the Speedway shut off, who is the large-than-life character?
    FloSports Films goes inside the fences of The Dirty Dollar Ranch to learn about Davenport’s journey from North Georgia’s red clay short tracks to becoming Dirt Late Model’s first two-million-dollar man.
    Jonathan, and wife Rachel, reveal the real-life struggles that have shaped their unique journey. It’s a rare peek into the life of one of America’s most successful racers.
    Eldora Million results, Eldora Million entry list and Eldora Speedway schedule are all available on FloRacing.

    The people who yell from the stands "I hate JD" (or whatever driver) ,should watch videos like this. It gives you good look at a good guy. Well done FloRacing!!!

    Remember this guy back in the 2000's racing at Friendship Speedway and 311 Speedway in NC. We all knew then this guy was something special. By far he is my favorite driver of any class. Very humble guy for what accomplishments he has had. Just never got to meet him personally...fingers crossed one day!
    My first memory of him is at 311 Speedway is when I seen his wife running up to the front stretch with a huge dog and grease rags around her knees to protect her jeans....being an active racers wife, I remember thinking that was genius. lol

    Grew up watch dirt racing after lose my dad early 2000’s I stopped going. Always caught news on few big races never seen you race til about 5-6 years ago. Heck of a story enjoyed the video. Tell your wife one day you’ll all get sit back celebrate on Dirty Dollar watching that boy take the wheel. Awesome Career hard not to be fan now!!

    Crazy how different we all are. I love racing and can’t imagine how good it feels to make a good living doing it. I enjoyed my military career but this man made more in a year than I did 20. Sometimes I wish I could do it all over again but then again you can’t predict how your 2nd chance would go either. I’m an asphalt guy but enjoyed this a lot.

    I'm a follower of the Northeast DIRT Modified Series so I'm not real familiar with the Late Models ,but J.D. and his family were excellent subjects for such a well made documentary.
    The quality of this film is can only help to shine a light on all levels of racing.
    Thanks Flo Racing 👍

      Davenport is alright. Taking calf to ball game. Wife cries a lot. In a 45 min documentary, she had black hair, blond hair, pink hair, and brown hair. Got some issues there. She looks beat-up.

JD and his wife may not know where their road is going, but for sure they are paving it together and it's going to be great. Congratulations, JD, on your success and for much more success in the future !! Good job FLO..

    FLORACING y'all have ALWAYS HAD GREAT RACING BUT THIS WAS MAGICAL AND EPIC 🏁🏆🏁 I've never had the pleasure to meet JD yet but I was a fan before he got to megastar status because I have been around dirt track racing my whole life and got to see the greats of Nascar literally in it's earlier years seeing the who's who of Nascar and Dirt Track Racing every Thursday night at our local Track, The Old Columbia Speedway in Cayce South Carolina. Junior Johnson, Ralph Earnhardt, Lee Petty, Buck Baker, Tiny Lund, Cale Yarbrough and so many others. Plus my parents and I were at Darlington twice every year. We always parked in the pits where you could mix and mingle with the driver's and their crew members. I don't follow Nascar much anymore but I am a DIE HARD DIRT TRACK RACING LOVING FAN ESPECIALLY SUPER LATE MODELS!! Hearing those powerful engines roaring to life and feeling the ground rumbling under my feet and seeing the 4 wide salute and then thundering down the front stretch when the green flag drops!! BEST SPORT ON THE PLANET AND I LOVE JONATHAN DAVENPORT 🏁🏆🏁 AND HAVE BEEN WATCHING HIM FOR YEARS NOW!! HE'S STILL THE SAME GUY THAT HE WAS WHEN HE STARTED!! THIS IS A PRICELESS PRECIOUS TREASURED BLESSING AND MEMORIES FOR A LIFETIME AND PURE GOLD!!! KEEP THIS AWESOME RACING COMING FLORACING 🏁🏆🏁🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✝️✝️✝️💞🤗💞 MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR PRECIOUS RESPECTIVE FAMILIES AND ALL THE TRACKS AND PROMOTERS AND ALL THE PEOPLE IT TAKES TO GET A TRACK TO RUN PLUS ALL THE DRIVER'S WHO PUT ON PURE EXCITEMENT EVERY TIME THEY ROLL ONTO THE TRACK!!! THANKS AGAIN FLORACING 🏁🏆🏁💞🤗💞🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✝️✝️✝️

I wish both of them good luck. And for Rachel Davenport, I hope last years $$$ helps get an employee so you can enjoy more.
