Foyt was five years old, he challenged a professional racer to an impromptu match race . . . and won. From that moment on victory was expected, excellence assumed.Anthony Joseph "A.J." Foyt Jr. is one of the greatest race car drivers in history--some would argue the best--and he has the statistics to back it up. He was the first to win the Indianapolis 500 four times, he has the most wins in Indy car races and championships of any driver, and he still holds the world closed-course speed record that he set more than thirty-five years ago.Numbers alone cant begin to tell Foyts story. Through tireless research and extensive interviews with the biggest names in motorsports, author Art Garner has compiled an unprecedented look at the life and career of one of Americas most popular sports heroes.The book captures Foyts journey from a cocky five-year-old to a brash competitor and offers fresh insight and details about the battles off and on the track that defined one of Americas biggest personalities. Every moment is captured, from Foyts unbridled comments about what it truly takes to be at the top of your game, his propensity to stuff journalists he didnt like into garbage cans, and the long list of people he simply punched in the mouth. Author Biography Art Garner retired from a forty-year career in journalism and automotive public relations and continued his racing reporting with his first book, Black Noon: The Year They Stopped the Indy 500.

Subsequent titles include Indy 500 Memories: An Oral History of the Greatest Spectacle in Racing and Hood to Coast Memories, about the running relay race staged each year from Mt. Hood to the coast of Oregon. Details ISBN 1642341789 ISBN-13 9781642341782 Title A.J.
