The Martinsville race on April 12 will be the first of two Craftsman Truck Series appearances by Fox TV analyst Darrell Waltrip as a driver. Broadcast partner Larry McReynolds will be Waltrips spotter, and Jeff Hammond, who turned the wrenches during part of Waltrips Cup career, will be the crew chief. Ã Foxs frequent assertion that Hammond was Waltrips crew chief for three championships is incorrect, by the way. In 1981, Tim Brewer was Waltrips crew chief. In 1982, the duties were shared among Brewer, Hammond and Mike Hill. Hammond was the crew chief for Waltrips third title in 1985. You can look it up, as they say.( Gaston Gazette ) UPDATE: Tim Brewer was no longer with the team in 1982 and Jeff Hammond was the crew chief. Also on the truck, Hammond is NOT the Crew Chief, Bobby Kennedy is the Crew Chief, Hammond is the “Interperator”.(4-4-2003)
