Today is a very hard day for me and a lot of AZ racers. Rick Stewart out of Phx. passed away after a battle with colon cancer. Rick built a lot of midgets in the 70's and 80's; cars he built won the Belleville midget nationals 2 times with Dave Maines and Mark Passerelli driving. Rick was entered into the AZ racing hall of fame last year and cherished the honor. I worked with Rick for over 20 years and he was a big brother and absolute rock for me. I will miss him terribly. Arrangements are pending.
