not forgotten . . .

Joe Hlywka


Toronto, Canada
day.mo.1932 - day.mo.1999


 Joe's heart and soul were devoted to racing, no matter what his health. In the 90's, he took an interest in the CanAm TQ Midget circuit, and became a car owner until he passed away! He had some great successes with this machine, and gave several young drivers a great opportunity to test and refine their racing skills.
