Welcome to one of the most unique mixes of people and faces you will ever find at any other bar. This site has been established
to let all the members know when racing events, parties, and finished brews, wines, and ciders are featured at the actual
bar. Even though Dale Jr. has moved to Hend(p)rick, we have decided to still be a fan of his, and still hate the other bastards
on his team.
We regularly brew our own beer, ferment wines and ciders for our friends to enjoy and have had a lot of
success. So come on in, enjoy the atmosphere which is rich in the legends of NASCAR, especially Dale Sr. and Jr. Pop open
a home brew have, a glass of home made wine or cider. Feel free to relish in the huge amount of beer and liquor we have in
stock. Both imported and domestic. The complete list can be viewed in column just to the right. Angel and I own the
bar and occasionally tend, however Michael is head of bartending and maintenance, but is now dabbling in brewing! We encourage
all to drink responsibly and to not be offended if we feel you've had enough. It's all about getting home safe folks!
We
welcome new members, so if you've ended up here at the site, someone likes what we do and is passing on the good word. If
the red light is on, that means we're open and just come on in and down the stairs. Anything you could possibly need to know
about beer, spirits, brewing, NASCAR, bar events, etc. can be found by navigating through the links on the Jerm's Joint Yahoo!
Group page (see bottom of this page to join), or talk to our self-proclaimed "experts".
Jerm's Joint owes a lot of
its beer selection influence to O'Malley's & The Rendezvous in St. Augustine, FL courtesy of Big Dave. Come on in, have
a drink, enjoy the company and conversation. We look forward to seeing you!

The Grinch Who Stole NASCAR
His statistics aren't what a racing fan would consider stellar, and his time in the cup series was short compared to today's
standards. However, Don Tarr is perhaps one of the most unique individuals to grace the pavement in NASCAR's premier
series. Born May 4th, 1929, hailing from the Miami Beach area, he only competed 48 times over a five year span from
1967 to 1971. However, out of these few events came some relatively impressive accomplishments.
Pairing with legendary crew chief and car owner, Ray Fox in 1967, Don set the speed record for qualifying a Dodge Charger
at 187.912 mph at the new Alabama International Speedway in 1969. This is what we now know as Talladega! Ever
wonder when the "in-car" broadcasts began? Well, at the Firecracker 400 on July 4, 1970, Tarr pioneered this concept
on ABC's Wide World of Sports communicating with commentators Jim McKay and Chris Economaki. By the way, he finished
6th! Also, Don swas the first active driver to serve as a commentator from the pit area from Nashville Speedway
on ABC in 1970. Though he only compiled nine top ten finishes in his career at tracks such as Daytona, Charlotte,
Michigan, Darlington, Atlanta, and Talladega, it was what he did off the track that perhaps made him most diverse to
the sport of stock car auto racing.
Long before Dr. Jerry Punch took to the microphone for ESPN, Dr. Don Tarr, MD was sailing around superspeedways to earn
the title of "World's Fastest Physician". Now 80 years young, he looks as suave now as he did then, and still manages
to see approximately 100 patients a week in his Mountain City, TN medical practice near Bristol. A far cry from his
Miami, Florida area up-bringing, but hardly ironic in his final destination. There is your short legends diddy for the
week!
