Career

[edit]

Blewett is a long-time competitor of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour, having made his debut in the series in 2001.[1] In 2006, he won his first NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour race at the Made in America Whelen 300 at Martinsville Speedway, leading all 20 laps.[2]

On August 16, 2007, Blewett and his brother John were involved in an accident while racing for the lead during a NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour race at Thompson International Speedway.[3] John Blewett died in the accident from blunt force head and neck trauma.[4]

Blewett was sidelined for the 2025 racing season due to complications from diverticulitis.[5][6] Later that year, Blewett was named one of NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour's 40 greatest drivers.[7]
