Tom Hager  

Thanks Lenny for doing this Great Tribute to Tom...My opinion is Tom never got the recognition he deserved.. Hard working, never say quit, Get it fixed no matter bad it is and One of the top drivers from our era..Yes I was in the left 43 in the double pic. (The first wreck pic the car had the C on the door from me running it)..Opening day the following year we went to Fonda for 50 lapper and I got second (Lazzaro won) and Tom got third.. When we arrived in the pits that day Tom says heres the box of gears and theres all the tires in the rack so pick what you want and i'll use whats left..HOW MANY OWNER DRIVERS WITH A SECOND CAR WOULD DO THAT??..Tom was a great friend I had in racing...He needs a monument in Easton Pa..Not to many could do as great as him with so little to work with..I would put him and Kenny Brightbill in that same catagory...HtH
