Description
No one would have ever guessed, especially a young 15 year old Paul Hazen, that this boy just tryin’ to stay out of trouble from rural Indiana, would end up 65 years later still towing the Hazen 57 Sprinter from racetrack to racetrack every weekend throughout the summer. With nearly 70 drivers hopping behind the wheel over the years, including the first 11 with Paul himself as a driver, they amassed an incredible 248 feature wins and 21 Track Championships!
From weekly shows at hometown dirt tracks to the national USAC Sprint Tour, the Hazen 57 has stayed competitive, even without the high-dollar sponsors and benefit of new equipment each year. Now past 80 years old, Paul’s passion for dirt sprint car racing continues on, spending nights in the garage with the team, preparing his beloved 57 for the next season, the next event, the next hot lap session, the next feature race.
I hope you enjoy this glimpse of Paul’s amazing career as a winning driver and most notably as successful car owner in “Amazin’ Hazen”.
