It is impossible for a NASCAR fan to be oblivious to who Anthony Wayne Stewart, better known as Tony “Smoke” Stewart, is. For starters, he is a three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion. Besides that, he is an IndyCar champion, a 4X USAC champion, a Hall of Famer, a track owner, a series owner, and, of course, a team owner.
In 618 starts throughout 17 years as a professional stock car driver, Stewart has amassed 49 wins and 15 poles in NASCAR's premier series, including a pair of victories in the prestigious Brickyard 400.
Moreover, as the co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing, which he started with Gene Haas back in 2009, Smoke boasts 65 wins and two driver championships. Needless to say, Stewart's name is inconspicuous, not just in the arena of NASCAR, but in motorsports as a whole.
