Carl Edwards, although he has not been a part of NASCAR for a long time, it is clear how much he is loved by the fans and the main people of this sport. The 45-year-old driver who will be inducted into the Hall of Fame today was invited to participate in the celebration of the 75th anniversary of NASCAR.
In an interview with the media, Edwards admitted that it is difficult to separate his life from the sport he has been a part of for years. It was difficult to get used to life outside of NASCAR, but he was aware that he had to make such a decision.
However, the renewed invitation of NASCAR brought a smile to his face and excitement, realizing that his life would not be complete without this sport.
“I can’t separate my life from this sport,” Edwards said, as quoted by The Charlotte Observer.
“And I walked away eight years ago. I turned my back, and I walked out of the room. It was scary, and over the last eight years, I felt odd about that. But for NASCAR to welcome me back, it’s made me realize that this sport is a part of me. “It’s who I am. It’s a part of my family. My life is shaped by this, and I think NASCAR knew that more than I did.”
