A J Foyt tribute

[bobjeffreson]

Have you guys seem this from you tube.....
I've watched it about 50 times since I found it.......
And what is the car at the very start, with front independent suspension?????
And the sound track is from my era!!!
BTW... A J Foyt came to Australia, back in the 1970s to race midgets... man it was awesome to see him race..he won!!!

I have a strong suspicion that heaven is going to be much like that video.

I came across this post while doing research on AJ's Bowes midget. A few things.

The rear engine car at the start is Lloyd Ruby, at the Hoosier Hundred, he missed the show.

Watch the film,at the 5:50 or so mark I got a laugh. Watch the announcer put his hand on the hot header. You need to watch what your doing.

Heaven is definately going to be like that film.At least that's the way I feel.

What always amazed me, when I watch this stuff, is how little he moved his hands, when racing on dirt. So much more smoother than many of the others. Smooth is fast.
