| 07/07/05 | Greg Saeger | This car was built by Bob Becker and run as the 64. He won the 40 lapper with it, and then went Dirt Modified racing the next year. |
| 08/18/05 | Nick | Hey guys.My name is Nick Lloyd and I am Al Hewitt nephew. Al wrecked that
dark blue car at Evergreen and came out with the light blue one that got him the
championship. I grew up watching and hearing the stories (most loved in the stands and
most feared on the outside on the track) he has a natural talent for driving a car to it's
limit and I have learned an used his teachings in my own racing career. I thank you for
this opportunity and in return I have allot of programs, pictures and videos of all
different drivers from the late 70's and early 80's. My grandfather Conrad Hewitt has
allot of stuff as well and is going to help me gather everything together for you guys. Thanks for the Hewitt family! |
