  • Jack Hewitt Entertains Crowd at Villages Club
    Hewitt Entertains Crowd at Villages Club The Villages Daily Sun Friday, January 9, 2015 By Steve Trivett Jack Hewitt kept the crowd on the edge of their seats for much of his stellar auto-racing career. He had them rolling in the aisles during a meeting of The Villages Motor Racing Fan Club on Wednesday evening at Colony Cottage Recreation Center. “Before I say anything, I need to warn you that I’m not rated G and I’m not politically correct,” said Hewitt, one of the most famous names in the history of United States Auto Club racing. “But I’ve stories up the ying-yang.” Yes, he does – much to the delight of the crowd of more than 100 that filled the room. And he told most of them. To say that Hewitt is a throwback is to say that belonging to the auto racing fraternity is not for the faint of heart. He’s had his neck broken twice. On at least one occasion, he’s caught on fire – that’s right, on fire. “We were running at the Fairgrounds at Indianapolis when something blew and there were flames everywhere,” he recalled. “The fire-fighting guys came over and turned all of their extinguishers on the car. “I had gotten out and I’m yelling, ‘But what about me!’ The only part of my neck that wasn’t burned was where the strap of my helmet went under my chin, and my feet were on fire. But I’m still here to tell about it.” Tell you about it he will – and he’s one of those who can talk the talk because he walked the walk.

  • FOX Sports & Truckers Play Dirty in Wednesday's NCWTS Mud
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday, July 20, 2015 FOX SPORTS & TRUCKERS PLAY DIRTY IN WEDNESDAY’S NCWTS MUD SUMMER CLASSIC FOX Sports 1 Offers Live Race Coverage from NASCAR’s Only Dirt-Track Race NASCAR returns to its roots this week when the NASCAR CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES slings dirt at Eldora Speedway for the third consecutive year. Tony Stewart’s dirt track in Ohio hosts NASCAR’s only national series dirt race on Wednesday, July 22, live on FOX Sports 1 at 9:00 PM ET. Beginning with practice on FOX Sports 1 at 10:30 AM ET on Wednesday, FOX Sports offers nine hours of live coverage from Eldora, the series’ 11th stop of the season, including practice, qualifying, five 10-lap qualifying races and the feature race (9:00 PM ET on FOX Sports 1). The 150-lap race is divided into three segments of 60, 50 and 40 with competition cautions at the breaks at laps 60 and 110. The inaugural Mud Summer Classic drew several Cup Series regulars and non-NASCAR dirt- track legends, and continues to attract competitors outside the Truck Series. Confirmed for Eldora are 2012 NASCAR SPRINT CUP SERIES champion Brad Keselowski, the first past Cup Series champion to compete at Eldora; inaugural Mud Summer Classic winner Austin Dillon; NASCAR XFINITY SERIES regular Ty Dillon; and 2013 Eldora pole sitter Ken Schrader. The Dillon brothers first competed at Eldora in Dirt Late Models and have vast dirt experience, as does Schrader. Keselowski, however, hits dirt for the first time ever this week but has the experience of his Brad Keselowski Racing teammate and dirt ace, Tyler Reddick, to lean on should he need it.

    RACING, REGION, AND THE ENVIRONMENT: A HISTORY OF AMERICAN MOTORSPORTS By DANIEL J. SIMONE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Daniel J. Simone 2 To Michael and Tessa 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A driver fails without the support of a solid team, and I thank my friends, who supported me lap-after-lap. I learned a great deal from my advisor Jack Davis, who when he was not providing helpful feedback on my work, was always willing to toss the baseball around in the park. I must also thank committee members Sean Adams, Betty Smocovitis, Stephen Perz, Paul Ortiz, and Richard Crepeau as well as University of Florida faculty members Michael Bowen, Juliana Barr, Stephen Noll, Joseph Spillane, and Bill Link. I respect them very much and enjoyed working with them during my time in Gainesville. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Julian Pleasants, Director Emeritus of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and I could not have finished my project without the encouragement provided by Roberta Peacock. I also thank the staff of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. Finally, I will always be grateful for the support of David Danbom, Claire Strom, Jim Norris, Mark Harvey, and Larry Peterson, my former mentors at North Dakota State University. A call must go out to Tom Schmeh at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, Suzanne Wise at the Appalachian State University Stock Car Collection, Mark Steigerwald and Bill Green at the International Motor Racing Resource Center in Watkins Glen, New York, and Joanna Schroeder at the (former) Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC).

    mittlerbros.com A few words from our President: After what seems like a never-ending presidential campaign, the American people have spoken. A total “outsider” has won and I hope and pray we continue as we have for over 200 years, and the transition to a new administration will be peaceful and heal the divide created over the last eight years. I hope for reform in regulations that are hurting all of our businesses and we can continue to build a better and stronger economy, which benefits everyone. Especially those like you, getting up every day to live the American Dream through hard work and the creation of unique quality products. We believe that Made in America is important for each of our futures, and like you, we are proud to manufacture in the USA.

It also allows you, and maybe your neighbor, a decent job and quality of life. Please take a moment and check out the inside back cover and see the many long- term dedicated employees we have; it is thru their skills, passion and dedication that we are able to offer the best quality products. I salute each and every one of them! It has been my privilege to count you as a customer, and many as friends, over all these years and hope to do so for many more years to come. Again, thank you for your business.
