Any Chase Briscoe fan can tell you that Chase grew up idolizing Tony Stewart. Like Tony, Chase grew up in Indiana and used a successful sprint car background to transition into NASCAR. However, a lot of drivers have paid tribute to Tony Stewart on throwback weekend while another sprint car racing Indiana native who drove a 98 has been mostly forgotten. 20 years ago this week, Kenny Irwin Jr. died in a practice crash at New Hampshire. In 5 years of Darlington Throwbacks, nobody has paid tribute to Kenny but hopefully this will be the year that changes.
This car started out with me just wanting to make a cool Chase Briscoe car, but once I saw that this week was the 20th anniversary of Kenny’s passing, it only made sense to make it a throwback. It’s not perfect, but I hope you guys like it and feedback is welcome.
