A happy birthday AJ, and many, many more to come.
I can count the number of people I consider personal heros on one hand, and AJ is among them.
Is it May yet ?

Simply the best.Comment

I consider myself luck to have seen all four of his Indy wins in person. He's one of the best ever.Supporting Indy Car racing since 1959Comment

I saw him in action only a few times. Once was at the Springfield mile.
We were sitting low at the end of the front straight, the track was still heavy and AJ was runing his qualifying laps. He pounded down the straight running high and pitched his race car sideways into the corner then jumped on the throttle and threw gobs of mud up into the stands and us as if to say, "you came to see something, well, here's some thing to see".
The man was amazing.
Something worth using my 1000th post for.

WOW...71 is quite remarkable for someone doing what he did...I only saw his last Indy win in person, but was fortunate to see him drive in stocks and on dirt as well as numerous road and paved ovals...one of my heros growing up.

To all the young or new race fans: A.J. was the best! Just to watch him strap into a Dirt Car or Sprint Car was one of the greatest thrills of any race fan. From Indy to Springfield to Terre Haute to Salem, he was the best. I turn 50 this winter and he is still my HERO! Happy Birthday A.J.! If they didn't see you race, they don't know what they missed!!"Miss the old days"Comment
