Joseph "Joe" Frasson (September 3, 1935 - November 21, 2016) was a retired NASCAR Winston Cup Series (now Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series) driver.
Born in Golden Valley, Minnesota, USA, his Winston Cup Series career spanned from 1969 to 1978, with four top-5 and nineteen top-10 finishes.
He had an abortive attempt at participating in the Budweiser Late Model Sportsman Series in 1982. Frasson's anger management issues caused him to frequently lose his temper when he failed to qualify in NASCAR Cup Series races.
His fierce and independent attitude during his NASCAR career would preclude the need for corporate sponsors and being a part of a multi-vehicle organization.
Having a rather gruff appearance, he was not apologetic to NASCAR media present at the race, and he showed an element of rudeness that people in the Southern United States stereotypically pictured people from the Northern United States as being.
