About Me
My interest in racing started in 1960 when my family moved to a small home a block away from the county fairgrounds. Every Friday night in the summer, we would go to the 1/4 dirt track and watch the modifieds and jalopies race. After a few years we moved and my racing was limited to the Wide World of Sports. As I grew older, I drifted away from racing and other than the occasional race on ESPN, racing was just another sport.
In February 1999 I was in my local Home Depot and saw a life size cut-out of Tony Stewart. The cashier told me that he was a new Winston Cup racer that they were sponsoring and that I should be sure to watch for him in the Daytona 500. So I did, and being the type of person I am, I started reading up on him.
When I discovered that he has won in every series he had ever run in (except the Busch Series) and the fact that he was driving for Joe Gibbs, a man I respect, I knew that it would be interesting to see how he did.
The more he raced, the more I became a fan. Tony is a throw back to the days before press agents and multi-million dollar sponsors. He’s a guy who just likes to go out race. He speaks his mind and pays his fines. He’s written some pretty big checks to NASCAR in his career, but he’s never backed down because it was the politically correct thing to do.
Datona 500, Wow what a show. One of the best i think i ever saw. I am now a Tony Stewart fan. 1st time i have picked one since Dale E Sr died. Iam also a Dodge fan, so this makes it a little tough. Great job Tony and all your people, maybe Joe Gibb Racing will go Dodge. Then i would be the ultimate fan for Tony and Dodge and Gibbs racing. Datona 500 will be yours in time. Dale E SR took 20 years,so what,he still got his and in the ultimate style.
Tony, I heard you are looking for “Orange” collector musclecars…
..How about an original Hugger Orange Yenko Camaro?
…I have one ….I can email complete info and photos if you are interested. …and it is the Real Deal!
thanks,

Hey John, maybe you should have read this page before commenting
I too am a big Tony Stewart fan. I follow his dirt teams too. Its just great to see him give back like he does. Don’t believe it will be too long before we see Tony on dirt permantly.
I noticed that you blog alot about Kid Rocket. He’s not in the TSR stable so I’m just wondering how you became a fan.
Sue, Tony has been friends with Mark Richards (Josh’s Father) for many years. When Josh began racing, Tony and TSR signed on to help sponsor him. Tony’s Late Model car uses a Rocket chassis and Josh has acted as Tonys crew chief in a couple late model races. Josh also drives for TSR in Tulsa at the Chili Bowl and Josh drove a TSR car in an ARCA race last season.
