Logano responded, “He called me two-faced! I kind of laughed. Got called by my manager and he was like ‘did you see this?’. He showed it to me and he looked really mad. I smiled and said, ‘No! It’s a great compliment’. He looked at me like, ‘What are you talking about?’

“He’s right, he’s a 100% right. I believe its a compliment because he’s saying that I can be a nice guy off the race track and I can be a total jerk when I go racing,” he concluded.

Joey Logano admitted that it was better than being known as a jerk all the time. The driver also accepted that he needs to find a way to shut off his ‘jerk’ side on the race track.
