Today Around 5 pm (Wed Dec 9 2020), the Supermodified family lost another great wheelman! Al Wood aka Bob Hunter, went home to be with our Lord God! You see Al Wood and My Dad were very close and good friends, so much so that he became Uncle Al to us kids. Uncle Al and my dad, worked at Elyria Auto service together. Uncle Al would have to sneak my dad into the pits at some tracks, cause my dad wasn’t old enough to get in there. Uncle Al, My Dad, Paul Barnes, Bill, and Dave Wood, were all a part of a great team with an Awesome driver. Now they are all together again racing in Heaven! Harold (Al) Wood designed, built and drove supermodified race cars at Lorain County Speedway, Sandusky, Oswego, New York and other tracks, winning many championships. He partnered with Paul 'Barney' Barnes for many successful seasons. |
