Robert Hutchens Jr. (born April 15, 1960) is an American former professional stock car racing driver, team owner, chew chief, and race engineer. He is the father of Trey Hutchens, who currently competes part-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series and whom he currently serve as a crew chief for.
Hutchens is best known for his involvement in the development of the Hutchens device, which was named after him, that was in use in NASCAR from 2001 to 2004. The device was banned by NASCAR in January 2005, due to it failing SFI Foundation safety tests. He was also the general manager for Richard Childress Racing during the time, a position he held since 1989. He was also the senior vice president of competition for Dale Earnhardt Inc. until the end of 2008, where he joined the newly formed Stewart–Haas Racing, where he served as the competition director for the team until his release midway through the 2011 season. He then became the general manager for JTG Daugherty Racing the following year.
During his driving career, Hutchens competed in series such as the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour, the now defunct NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour, and the SMART Modified Tour.
