The Truex family is from Mayetta which is a little neighborhood in Stafford Township about 30 miles north of Atlantic City. I think their roots in the area go back pretty far. That part of Ocean County was like the middle of nowhere until the 80s.It's not like they were from Philly or New York, where they'd be literally hanging out with connected guys. But I guess it's possible someone made them kick up, who knows?
