Jeremy Wayne Clements[1] (born January 16, 1985)[2] is an American professional stock car racing driver.

A native of Spartanburg, South Carolina, Clements began his racing career at the age of 8 by driving go-karts.

In 2002, Clements moved up to the Late Model division where he won 9 overall races as well as the championship at Cherokee.

While driving his late model, the driveshaft broke and pierced through the vehicle, injuring his right hand.

He was immediately taken to Wake Forest University Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem, N.C., where he underwent a nine-hour orthopedic surgery.

[citation needed] In the following year, Clements went through ten surgeries; including sewing his hand to his right side hip for a skin graft, using bone grafts from his hip, and taking tendons from his right foot.

On July 10, 2005, Clements got back behind the wheel of a racecar for the first time since the accident, testing his late model at Thunder Valley.

He was also selected by General Motors to participate in a three-track test with Richard Childress Racing.

On August 11, 2007, at Nashville Superspeedway, he earned his only ARCA win to date after starting 2nd and leading 48 laps.

Shortly before the October race at Kansas Speedway, Clements and sponsor Saxon Group joined forces with JD Motorsports to finish out the season in the No.

After missing the field at Daytona due to qualifying being rained out, his plans for the rest of the reason were up in the air.

The sanctioning body stated that the suspension was due to violations of the NASCAR Code of Conduct, as defined in Section 7–5 of the sanctioning body's rulebook, as well as Section 12–1, actions detrimental to stock car racing.

[10] His season was highlighted by top-ten finishes at the huge Talladega Superspeedway tri-oval and the series' inaugural race at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

[10] After several equipment setbacks in the 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series, Clements had a brief moment in the top 5 in the Aaron's 312 at Talladega Superspeedway on May 3, 2014, before a crash forced him out with four laps to go.

[11] At the Gardner Denver 200 at Road America, Clements recorded a then career-best sixth-place finish.

[12] At Talladega in 2016, Clements led laps under caution and recorded his first Xfinity top-five finish, a fourth.

A few races later, he would score his first career win at Road America after he and Matt Tifft got together with 2 laps to go.

[15] However, NASCAR issued the team an L2 penalty four days later after the post-race inspection discovered an illegally modified intake manifold.
