A. J. Foyt

Happy Birthday to the legendary A.J. Foyt.
 
We've read and heard many stories about the first 4 time winner of the Indianapolis 500 (1961, 64, 67 and 77).
 
 
 
Our pappy was at every Indy 500 he raced in, and was there in 1992 with our mom at qualifying when A.J. announced his retirement and took a lap around the speedway.
