Jack Pennington

Jack Pennington (born September 3, 1953) is a dirt Late Model driver from Augusta, Georgia.

He was an ace in late model dirt track racing before he moved up to the Busch Series in 1989 making six starts, finishing with 2 top tens.

He made his Winston Cup debut late in 1989, driving two races that year.

He was second in the 1990 Rookie of the Year standings in controversial fashion (because the winner was posthumously awarded after being killed in a drunken driving incident returning home from the September North Wilkesboro round; NASCAR has since added a disciplinary rule that requires drivers to finish the season in good standing, which Pennington would have won the title under current rules).

Italics – Pole position earned by points standings or practice time.
