yes met him last year at the 4 crowns in 2022 sighning autographs, he was the only one to win the 4 crowns, some say larson would have the one year if he had a winged car that year but only had midget usac sprint and silvercrown, but hewitt was real nice he was selling a racing book about his carrer I belive.
I saw that you edited out the IRP Midget feature segment out of this video. I really want to see that, is it any possibility that you could post that in a separate video? Or, have you done that already?
USAC's rule is to invert the top 6 qualifiers in the feature. Michner was the 6th fastest qualifier, so he got the pole. They have changed their format in the last few years. Now, you have to transfer through the heats to get your time back. If this race were today, the best position Michner could start would be 7th.
Yeah that was a stupid rule. Why ever run heats at all. Qualify and then run the semi and the feature. It would make more sense! Guess that's why they changed it. You have one of my favorite channels on youtube FYI. I love this stuff!
Met Jack Hewitt at Indy in 1998 when he made the show. Great ambassador of the sport.
Great driver , I saw him at Springfield a few times in the stocks and silver crown
