Tony Stewart and Leah Pruett welcomed their first child over the weekend, son Dominic James Stewart. Tony, who was competing in the NHRA event at Pamona Dragstrip had to head to Phoenix after qualifying and made it in time for the delivery.
Tony Stewart has carried a lot of names over the years. He's been affectionately known as Smoke, champ, and for many over time, he was known as boss. This weekend, the legendary racer added another name to his list -- dad.
The 53-year-old, who was competing full-time in the NHRA TopFuel Dragster ranks, received the call that his wife Leah Pruett was going into labor. Stewart, who qualified for the weekend's NHRA Finals in Pomona, California, rushed to Phoenix per a social media post from Tony Stewart Racing Nitro, where he was able to make it in time for the delivery of his son Dominic James Stewart.
"Meet our new teammate, Dominic Hames Stewart," the post on the TSR Nitro X account said. "Momma @LeahPruett_TF and baby are doing great. Congratulations LP and @TonyStewart on becoming new parents! Only Tony could pull off qualifying, rushing to Phoenix to make it in time for the delivery, then back to @PomonaDragstrip for race day. Let's go win Dominic a trophy.
