Birthplace – Santa Ana, CA Oh Petey, he was a fast driving, wheely riding, rubber-burning, son, brother, uncle, husband, dad & papa. He passed on from this life on May 14th, 2022 from his race with cancer.
He loved his mom Yvonne “Muzzy” (deceased), his brothers Kenny, Mike, Jimmy & Bill (all deceased), Rusty Sweetland, and Randy Sweetland.
He married Heather Sweetland, almost 19 years ago. His children Natosha, Kenna, Jeremey, Niko, Taylor, Buddy & Jessie was his greatest accomplishment.

(Even if it meant making his grandbabies cry) He had a passion for racing, hot rods, Harley, HAM radio, flashlight, and the color purple. As a lifelong mechanic, Pete was thoroughly interested in being able to fix anything life threw at him.
