#76 JOHN BLEWETT JR.'s ASPHALT MODIFIED GREMLIN
#76 John Blewett Jr. was a cornerstone of the Northeast modified racing scene, carrying on a family legacy that made the Blewett name legendary at tracks across New York and New Jersey. Growing up in a household where "Victory Lane" photos took the place of childhood sports pictures, John Jr. spent the bulk of his career tearing up local weekly short tracks. He was perhaps most famous for piloting the iconic red, white, and blue No. 76 car, a machine that became a symbol of the family's hard-working, "racer's racer" reputation.
While he was a local hero, he also made his mark on the big stage with 29 starts in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour, where he clinched a major victory at Star Speedway in 1986. Beyond his own time behind the wheel, John Jr. was the driving force behind the next generation, serving as both a mentor and car owner for his sons, John III and Jimmy, who followed him into the winner's circle. Whether he was running the family's scrap metal business or turning wrenches at the track, he remained a respected, salt-of-the-earth figure whose influence is still felt through the memorial races and family traditions that continue in his name today.
