John Jeppesen Writing for Racing | email | 704-246-8600
Writing about Racing is my passion
Want to know what’s happening in motorsports?
There’s no end to the number of places you can look. Want to know who and why? There’s John Jeppesen.
He’s been up to his neck in racing since Barney Oldfield. He knows the sanctioning bodies, the series, the teams, the history, the tracks and the cars.
Most of all, he knows the people. He knows as many drivers as anyone. The difference is, they know him. And they talk to him. This guy’s got Roger Penske’s cell number for Pete’s sake.
If you’re looking for a direct line into the heart of motorsports, you can do a lot worse than John Jeppesen.
You can’t do any better.

About John Jeppesen
Many people know me as a motorsport journalist. I’ve been involved in the sport for 45 years with the gray beard to prove it. I’ve been an SCCA pit crew member, SCCA regional magazine editor, SportsCar magazine writer, vintage race car driver, and graduate of a famous French driving school. I have also worked in motorsports public and media relations at the highest professional level.
My byline has appeared in SportsCar, Speedway Illustrated, Speedvision, Real Car Guys, Vintage Motorsport (as an award winner) and most recently at National Speed Sport News. I have been a regular NSSN contributor since 2012. I have met and interviewed many of the most famous people in the sport.
I’m ready to work for you. Give me a call 704-246-8600, or send an email.
