Career

Jason's racing career was launched in the World Karting Association (WKA), where in 1993 he claimed the WKA's Sprint Division Championship of the Carolina's Cup at North Carolina Speedway located in Rockingham, North Carolina.

1994 saw Jarrett return to a track that had provided early success for both his father and grandfather - Hickory Motor Speedway. While competing in the Limited Sportsman Division, he scored one victory and one pole, along with earning Rookie-of-the-Year honors. In 1995, Jarrett moved into the Winston Racing Series Late Model Stock Division, where he spent the next three seasons honing his skills at the famed oval.

The 1997 season proved extremely busy for Jarrett, as he competed in a total of 46 late model events between Hickory Motor Speedway and Tri-County Speedway located in Hudson, North Carolina.

Between 1997 and 2000, Jarrett competed in over 40 NASCAR Busch Series events as follows; 1997, three starts for DAJ Racing, 1998 eleven starts for this same team, 1999, nine events for BACE Motorsports; 2000, nineteen starts for Jarrett/Favre Motorsports.

In 2001, Jarrett began his ARCA RE/MAX Series career, with second-place finish in the final ARCA RE/MAX Series point standings and Rookie-of-the-Year honors. 2002 he was 3rd, and 2003 2nd again as well as earning the Bill France Triple Crown Award.

After the 2005 season he retired from racing. Starting in 2007, Jarrett worked for his father's company, Dale Jarrett Incorporated, as a project manager. In 2010, he joined Germain Racing as a spotter for drivers Casey Mears and Max Papis in the Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series. Three years later, he left the organization to join Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) as the spotter for driver Ryan Newman in the Sprint Cup Series, and followed Newman in 2014 to Richard Childress Racing in the same role.

He now resides in Hickory, North Carolina, and is married to Christina. Their first child, Ford, was born November 14, 2008.
