"1st Class"

Duane Carter
Jimmy Bryan
A.J Foyt
Roger McCluskey
Mel Kenyon
Rich Vogler
Tony Stewart

Gotta agree with D.O. on this list.....99% anyway...


I can't imagine Hewitt not being in the 1st class inducted, especially due to his 4crown accomplishments along with the rest of his amzing driving career, and I feel that a driver like Hewitts accomplishments outside of USAC and beyond their driving career should count towards deeming them worthy of induction..USAC standouts that have had plenty of success in non USAC races or success as owners or in the industry or as offcials or just all around ambassadors to the sport I mean.

I couldn't bump anybody on D.O.s 1st class list to include Hewitt but I dang sure couldn't see any other driver going before him. I would also expect to see Robbie Stanley, Jeff Gordon, Kenny Irwin, and Kevin Olson nominated in the first handfull of years.
