NASCAR driver wears Ole Miss racing helmet as a nod to his alma mater

NASCAR driver and Ole Miss alum Tommy Joe Martins isn’t shy about how much he loves his school, even when he’s on the race track.

Martins, racing full-time this season in NASCAR’s Camping World Truck Series, finished 17th in the Pocono Mountains 150 Saturday and shared a few photos from the experience on Twitter, including a shot of his racing helmet emblazoned with the Ole Miss script.

Martins has documented the 2016 season through social media and blog posts from an insider’s perspective, with the helmet making repeat appearances along the way.
