How do you go from living in an Amish community to winning a NASCAR Cup Series championship? Marlin Yoder found a way, and it wasn’t easy. After leaving the Amish community, Marlin wasn't going to let his dreams of reaching the highest level of stock car racing slip away. He was working as a roofer and helping on friends’ late models in Wisconsin, but challenged himself to figure out how to work in racing full time.
In 2015, Marlin drove to North Carolina and gave himself two weeks to find a job at a race shop. He got a room in a motel and started visiting race shops in the Charlotte area to hand out his resume. How the rest of Marlin’s story plays out is almost unbelievable, including when he turned down his dream job the first time it was offered. But, he found a way and he’s got a 2021 NASCAR Cup Series championship ring to prove it.
