'''Robert Glenn Johnson Jr. ''' (June 28, 1931 – December 20, 2019), better known as '''Junior Johnson''', was an American professional [[stock car racing]] driver, engineer, and team owner as well as an entrepreneur. He won 50 NASCAR races in his career before retiring in 1966. In the 1970s and 1980s, he became a NASCAR racing team owner, winning the [[NASCAR Cup Series|NASCAR]] championship with [[Cale Yarborough]] and [[Darrell Waltrip]] three times each; Johnson was the first owner to win multiple championships with multiple drivers. He is credited as the first to use the [[drafting (racing)|drafting]] technique in stock car racing. He was nicknamed "The Last American Hero," and his autobiography and movie [[The Last American Hero|based on his upbringing]] is of the same name. In May 2007, Johnson teamed with Piedmont Distillers of Madison, North Carolina, to introduce the company's second [[moonshine]] product, called "Midnight Moon Moonshine", a nod to the days of his early youth in the 1940s when he made a living as a moonshiner/moonrunner and bootlegger.

==Early life and race career==
Johnson was born in [[Ronda, North Carolina]], the fourth of seven children of Lora Belle (Money) and Robert Glenn Johnson, Sr.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.journalnow.com/sports/nascar-legend-junior-johnson-dies-at/article_a436d6fe-2456-5bc5-bee6-cf40f901dda6.html|title=NASCAR legend Junior Johnson dies at 88|last=Correspondent|first=Lee Montgomery Special|website=Winston-Salem Journal|date=20 December 2019 |language=en|access-date=2019-12-20|archive-date=2019-12-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191220233328/https://www.journalnow.com/sports/nascar-legend-junior-johnson-dies-at/article_a436d6fe-2456-5bc5-bee6-cf40f901dda6.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name = NYT>{{cite news|url = https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/20/sports/junior-johnson-dead.html|title = Junior Johnson, Good-Old-Boy Auto Racing Star, Is Dead at 88|work = [[The New York Times]]|date = December 20, 2019|access-date = December 20, 2019|last = Goldstein|first = Richard|archive-date = December 21, 2019|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20191221011013/https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/20/sports/junior-johnson-dead.html|url-status = live}}</ref> His family is of [[Ulster Scots people|Ulster Scots]] descent, and settled in the foothills of North Carolina in the eighteenth century. The Johnson family was involved in the whiskey business before he was born. His maternal great-grandfather served as the second-highest-ranking Confederate general in North Carolina.

His father, a lifelong [[Bootlegging (alcohol)|bootlegger]], spent nearly twenty of his sixty-three years in prison, as their house was frequently raided by revenue agents. Junior was arrested and spent one year in prison in [[Ohio]] in 1956-57 for having an illegal still, although he was never caught in his many years of transporting bootleg liquor at high speed.<ref>{{cite book|last=Menzer|first=Joe|title=The Wildest Ride: A History of NASCAR|year=2001|publisher=Simon & Schuster|location=New York|isbn=9780743205078|page=[https://archive.org/details/wildestridehist00menz/page/59 59]|url-access=registration|url=https://archive.org/details/wildestridehist00menz/page/59}}</ref>

In 1955, Johnson began his career as a NASCAR driver. In his first full season, he won five races and finished sixth in the 1955 NASCAR Grand National points standings.

In 1958, Johnson won six races.

In 1959, Johnson won five more NASCAR Grand National races (including a win from the pole position at the [[1959 Hickory 250]]); by this time he was regarded as one of the best short-track racers in the sport.

His first win at a "superspeedway" came at the [[Daytona 500]] in 1960. Johnson and his [[pit stop|crew chief]], [[Ray Fox]], were practicing for the race, trying to figure out how to increase their speed, which was {{convert|22|mph}} slower than that of the top cars in the race. During a test run, a faster car passed Johnson. He noticed that, when he moved behind that car, his own car's speed increased because of the faster car's [[slipstream]]. Johnson was then able to stay close behind the other car until the final lap of the test run, when he used the "slipstream" effect to slingshot past it. By using this technique, Johnson went on to win the 1960 Daytona 500, despite his car being slower than others on the field. Johnson's technique was quickly adopted by other drivers, and his practice of "drafting" has become a common tactic in NASCAR races.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nascar.com/news/121002/ups-game-changers-art-of-draft/index.html|title=The art of the draft|last=Aumann|first=Mark|publisher=[[NASCAR]]|date=October 2, 2012|archive-date=October 5, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121005114444/http://www.nascar.com/news/121002/ups-game-changers-art-of-draft/index.html}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.legendsofnascar.com/Ray_Fox.htm |title=Raymond Lee Fox, Sr. |access-date=2008-02-25 |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060117161343/http://www.legendsofnascar.com/Ray_Fox.htm |archive-date=January 17, 2006 }}, legendsofnascar.com; Retrieved February 20, 2008</ref>

In 1963, Johnson had a two-lap lead in the [[World 600]] at [[Lowe's Motor Speedway|Charlotte]] before a spectator threw a bottle onto the track and caused a crash; Johnson suffered only minor injuries. Johnson also tried but failed to qualify for the [[1963 Indianapolis 500]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.foxsports.com/nascar/gallery/indianapolis-motor-speedway-brickyard-400-indy-500-aj-foyt-mario-andretti-tony-stewart-072315|title=Double dippers: Those who have competed in NASCAR and the Indy 500|work=[[Fox Sports]]|access-date=2020-05-11|archive-date=2021-03-08|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210308185709/https://www.foxsports.com/nascar/gallery/indianapolis-motor-speedway-brickyard-400-indy-500-aj-foyt-mario-andretti-tony-stewart-072315|url-status=live}}</ref>

Johnson retired as a driver in 1966. In his career, Johnson claimed 50 victories, 11 at major speedway races. He retired as the winningest driver never to have a championship.{{citation needed|date=April 2017}}

Johnson was a master of [[dirt track racing]]. "The two best drivers I've ever competed against on dirt are Junior Johnson and [[Dick Hutcherson]]," said two-time NASCAR champion [[Ned Jarrett]].

==Career as a NASCAR owner==
{{main|Junior Johnson & Associates}}
As a team owner, he worked with many NASCAR drivers, including [[Darel Dieringer]], [[LeeRoy Yarbrough]], [[Cale Yarborough]], [[Bobby Allison]], [[Darrell Waltrip]], [[Neil Bonnett]], [[Terry Labonte]], [[Geoff Bodine|Geoffrey Bodine]], [[Sterling Marlin]], [[Jimmy Spencer (racing driver)|Jimmy Spencer]] and [[Bill Elliott]]. In all, his drivers won 132 races, which is fifth to [[Petty Enterprises]], [[Hendrick Motorsports]], [[Joe Gibbs Racing]] and [[Roush Fenway Racing]] on the all-time list. His drivers won six Winston Cup Championships — three with Yarborough (1976–1978) and Waltrip (1981–82, 1985).

In 2011, Johnson announced that he would restart a race team with son Robert as the driver. Junior Johnson Racing will be located in Hamptonville, North Carolina. Robert, the 2010 UARA Rookie of the Year, planned to run a 28–30 race schedule in 2011, which includes the entire K&N East Series schedule and some races in the UARA and [[Whelen All-American Series]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.nascar.com/news/110103/junior-johnson-race-team/index.html |title=Hall of Famer Johnson launches new racing team |access-date=2011-01-04 |archive-date=2011-01-06 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110106034151/http://www.nascar.com/news/110103/junior-johnson-race-team/index.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

==Presidential pardon==
On December 26, 1986, President [[Ronald Reagan]] granted Johnson a presidential pardon for his 1956 moonshining conviction. In response to the pardon, which restored his right to vote, Johnson said, "I could not have imagined anything better."<ref>[http://motorsportsunplugged.com/?tag=president-reagan-junior-johnson For Junior, A Presidential Pardon Was A Great Start To The 1986 Season]</ref>

==Film==
In the mid-1960s, writer [[Tom Wolfe]] researched and wrote an article about Johnson, published in March 1965 in [[Esquire magazine|''Esquire'']], and reprinted in Wolfe's [[The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby|The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine Flake Streamline Baby]]. This was eventually reprinted in ''The Best American Sports Writing of the Century'', ed. David Halberstam (1999). The article, originally entitled "Great Balls of Fire", turned Johnson into a national celebrity and led to fame beyond the circle of NASCAR fans. In turn, the article was made into a 1973 movie based on Johnson's career as a driver and moonshiner, ''[[The Last American Hero]]'' (a.k.a. ''Hard Driver'').<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.journalnow.com/sports/national/ed-hardin-junior-johnson-was-a-national-treasure-but-he/article_574ebc43-c782-59a3-bc25-2bfeb7cff4af.html#1|title=Ed Hardin: Junior Johnson was a national treasure, but he was just one of us|date=20 December 2019 }}</ref> [[Jeff Bridges]] starred as a fictionalized Johnson, and Johnson himself served as technical advisor for the film.  The movie was critically acclaimed and featured the [[Jim Croce]] hit song "I Got A Name".

Follow Your Dreams Productions' President and CEO, [[Fred Griffith (actor)|Fred Griffith]], has signed a rights deal for a true-life story movie about Junior Johnson (Sports Illustrated Vault, 2006).{{Citation needed|date=September 2011}} Griffith, an [[American actor]] and producer from South Carolina, is currently adapting a screenplay based largely on the book, ''Junior Johnson, Brave In Life'', written by Tom Higgins and Steve Waid (Big West Racing, 2006).{{Citation needed|date=September 2011}} Veteran actor and producer [[Chris Mulkey]] is a writing producer for the film. According to Griffith, this film—unlike ''The Last American Hero'', which was about a fictionalized version of Johnson named Junior "Jackson"—will remain true to the real life of Junior Johnson.(Morris 2006, p.&nbsp;C-1){{Citation needed|date=September 2011}} Johnson had a voice role in the animated film ''[[Cars 3]]'', as Junior "Midnight" Moon, a reference to his Moonshine Company.

Outside of film, Bruce Springsteen mentioned Junior Johnson in his song, "Cadillac Ranch," from the River album in 1980: "James Dean in that Mercury '49, Junior Johnson runnin' through the woods of Caroline, even Burt Reynolds in that black Trans-Am, all gonna meet down at the Cadillac Ranch."

==Midnight Moon==
In May 2007, Johnson teamed with Piedmont Distillers to introduce the company's second moonshine product, called Midnight Moon. Johnson became part-owner of Piedmont Distillers, the only legal distiller in North Carolina at the time. Piedmont Distillers is located in Madison, N.C., in the town’s former train station built in 1915.<ref>{{Cite web|date=20 May 2007|title=NASCAR Legend Junior Johnson Back in the Moonshine Business|url=http://lyke2drink.blogspot.com/2007/05/nascar-legend-junior-johnson-back-in.html|website=Lyke2Drink}}</ref> The moonshine is made in small batches in a copper still, authentic to the Johnson family tradition of making moonshine.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.juniorsmidnightmoon.com/legacy |title=Midnight Moon Moonshine Inspired by Junior Johnson &#124; Jr Johnson Legacy |access-date=2014-03-08 |archive-date=2014-03-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140307165922/http://www.juniorsmidnightmoon.com/legacy/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
