At the 2024 Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach, we were fortunate to be invited into his race weekend inner sanctum – the transporter driver's lounge, for an interesting interview where he fills us in on the Team Penske technical alliance, driving the new hybrid system, and a deep-dive into the Indianapolis 500 where he led the race and finished third in 2023.

He would earn his first pole position later in the year with a run to the top spot in Portland. He's re-signed with Foyt for 2025 and is certainly one to watch.

Fast facts about the race car driver. 

Daniel Sexton Gurney (1931-2018) was a Southern California Hot-Rodder who became one of the most successful racing drivers in the history of motorsport, with wins in Saloon Car, Sports Car, NASCAR, Indy Car and Formula One. Gurney raced for the Arciero Brothers, Luigi Chinetti's North American Racing Team, Ferrari, Brabham, BRM and Porsche before teaming up with Carroll Shelby to found All American Racers in 1964.Gurney was always seeking out men of motorsport at the top of their game: he collaborated with Colin Chapman of Lotus, engine maestro Harry Weslake, and the ambitious cadre at Ford Motor Company, who were intent on taking on the world's best.Gurney helped to pioneer the rear engine layout at the Indianapolis 500, spelling the end of Indy's Roadster Era in Champ Car racing, and AAR fielded the Gurney Eagle Formula One chassis for the first time in 1966. 1967 was a banner year for Gurney, winning the Belgian Grand Prix in the Eagle Mk1- the first Grand Prix win for an American constructor since 1921. He also won overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans with his co-driver A.J. Foyt in the Ford GT 40 Mk IV.Gurney retired as a driver in 1970, but continued to operate All American Racers for the rest of his life, famously partnering with Toyota in IMSA-GT and CART. As a driver, Dan Gurney chalked up 63 victories over all motorsport categories, and All American Racers achieved 78 total wins as a constructor. His influence and contributions in the world of motor racing continue to inspire the next generation.SUPPORT THE POD:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/hpheritageSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS:http://modelcitizendiecast.comFIND US ON THE WEB:https://www.horsepowerheritage.comInstagram: @horsepowerheritageSupport the showSubscribe to the Horsepower Heritage YouTube channel for more great cars and motorcycles! https://www.youtube.com/@horsepowerheritage8030

A.J. Foyt: Survivor, Champion, Legend (Volume One, Octane Press, October 2024), an extensive and highly entertaining biography of one of America's most popular, colorful, and controversial sports heroes, is now available for order. Art Garner-an award-winning author and finalist for the prestigious PEN/ESPN award for literary sports writing for his bestselling book, Black Noon-has captured the action on and off the track that led many to consider Foyt to be one of the greatest race car drivers of all time-and one reporter to write that A.J. stood for "another jerk."Known for his fiery disposition and bare-knuckled approach, Foyt's driving career spanned five decades-six if you count an exhibition race when he was five years old. He was the first driver to win the Indianapolis 500 four times and still holds Indy car records for most victories and championships. He is the only driver ever to win the Indianapolis 500, 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the Daytona 500, one version of auto racing's triple crown. He also won the International Race of Champions in 1976 and 1977 and still holds the world closed-course speed record that he set in 1987. "Statistics tell only part of the story," Garner says. "Foyt likes to say, 'I'm just A.J., ain't no different than any other man,' but nothing could be further from the truth. He's one of the most complex and intricate personalities in the history of auto racing, perhaps all of sports." The biography also explores the unique relationship between Foyt and his "Daddy," Anthony Joseph "Tony" Foyt Sr. Although they often clashed-it was Tony who said working with his son could be like "dancing with a buzzsaw"-A.J. called him "the only man I can trust." It was Tony who instilled in his son an overwhelming drive to be the best, teaching him that victory was expected, excellence assumed. And it was Tony who told a crowd celebrating A.J.'s fourth Indy 500 victory that his son had "done fair."Through tireless research and hundreds of hours of new interviews with Foyt, his family, friends, and the biggest names in motorsports-including Mario Andretti, Roger Penske, Al Unser Sr., Johnny Rutherford, Jackie Stewart, Richard Petty, Cale Yarborough, and many others-Garner has compiled an unprecedented look at Foyt's life and career. At 656 pages it includes ninety-five photos, some from Foyt's family albums, and fifty-five pages of source notes and index. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

And if anywhere in these pages it says A.J. hates me, I know he doesn't anymore. That was a few decades ago. Today we're BFFs." Asked about the upcoming biography, Foyt said: "I know what I did. I know the fun I had. I don't really give a [$*!#] if anybody else cares. I know I had a wonderful, wonderful life. A lot of heartaches but a lot of fun at the same time. I don't know if I would change anything if I was reborn." With an official publication date of October 1, 2024, A.J. Foyt: Survivor, Champion, Legend (Volume One) is available for order now from Octane Press. Volume One traces the Foyt family from its Eastern European roots through A.J.'s 1977 season, when he became the first driver ever to win the Indianapolis 500 four times.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sets out to learn more about the world of open wheel motorsports as he sits down with the CEO of McLaren Racing Zak Brown. Big news brought the open wheel executive to town as McLaren joined Hendrick Motorsports in announcing that Kyle Larson will return to the Indianapolis 500 in 2025 for another attempt at the Memorial Day double. Zak explains how the partnership with Rick Hendrick came together through an adoration for his race team, which he views as a North American equivalent of McLaren. He also credits Larson's versatility with being reminiscent of yesteryear's drivers like A.J. Foyt and Mario Andretti. As McLaren continues to flourish open wheel racing, Zak says his sights are set on becoming a top-outfit in the sports car ranks, competing in both WEC and IMSA in the future.Zak's background in racing can be traced to the 1981 Long Beach Grand Prix, which he attended with his parents and brother. A successful appearance on Wheel of Fortune when he was 13 and advice from Mario himself led to a door opening in go-kart racing, which Zak entered and never looked back. After finding a knack for securing sponsorship, Zak realized he was better fit on the marketing end of the sport and started his own company, Just Marketing, Inc., which quickly rose to being one of the top businesses in racing. Zak would sell the company and find himself at a professional crossroads before being faced with the ultimate career decision: be in line to one day run Formula One or help direct McLaren Racing. Thanks to his love of competition, Zak took the position at the legendary race team and helped it return to its former glory at the forefront of the racing world.Dale and Zak share one strong common thread, through Dale Earnhardt Sr.'s 1980s Nova, which currently resides in the JR Motorsports garage. Zak was a longtime owner of the vehicle before Dale Jr. was able to acquire it through auction, and he shares an incredible story of how he was able to confirm its authenticity.

This week's episode: David Malukas will go to A.J. Foyt Racing in 2025 on a multi-year deal and what this means for current Foyt drivers Santino Ferrucci and Sting Ray Robb. Plus, Conor Daly will drive the no. 78 Juncos Hollinger Racing entry for the remainder of the season and a preview of this weekend's Bommarito 500 at Gateway.

Malukas has his third team in a year - after being dropped by McLaren after his wrist injury and returning to action with Meyer Shank - and he outlines the reasons for his decision to switch. He also addressed rumours about this being a ploy to get to Team Penske - linked to Foyt - in the future, and answers those who think this is a backwards or sideways move, as well as discussing his strong form on his return. Kyle Kirkwood - and Malukas - preview this weekend's race at Gateway, too. Andretti Global's Kirkwood also discusses his incredible consistency this year - something he's been criticised for a lack of in the past - and talks about the adaptation to IndyCar from a successful junior career.

 It's officially race week again in the IndyCar world, and Conor Daly is on Speed Street with a big news drop. He joins co-host Chase Holden to reveal the details of his deal to drive the Juncos Hollinger number-78 NTT IndyCar for the rest of the 2024 season, starting this upcoming weekend at Gateway. Conor chats about how he felt on-track during the recent hybrid test at the Madison, Illinois oval and what he's looking forward to most about working with the new team. The guys also react to the news bombshell that David Malukas will be joining the A.J. Foyt Racing team for a multi-year contract starting in 2025. They discuss how the potential charter deal may cause the rest of the IndyCar roster to shake out for next year.The man of the hour David Malukas joins the show to chat about his new deal to join the historic Foyt team and what his goals are for the rest of his time with Meyer Shank Racing. Conor explains that when he initially reached out to schedule an interview with David, it was to check in with him after his tumultuous beginning of the 2024 season, and had no idea of the impending announcement of his new contract. David gives a lot of thanks to the Meyer Shank team who he explains took a chance on him after his hand injury and gave him a platform to return to the racing spotlight. The guys also discuss David's online social media presence and what he's doing to connect with Gen Z and help introduce them to IndyCar racing.

Tonight, on Trackside, there is a lot of silly season news as IndyCar heads into their first race back from the Olympic break at Gateway. Kevin and Curt talk about David Malukas going to AJ Foyt Racing. The two run down some other seats that are open, and what Malukas going to Foyt means for their lineup. Who will Malukas' teammates be? Who's bringing the budget? They talk about Malukas being in four teams in less than a year. They talk about the lineup at Dale Coyne for next year, and where Santino Ferrucci will go.  Later, David Malukas joins the show to talk about his new deal with AJ Foyt Racing. He expresses his happiness to finally be solidified with a team, and how he will not let himself get injured again, including making some jokes with Curt and Kevin about going up stairs. He talks about how it will work with the Foyt team in Texas, but David wants to stay in Indy. He also talks about who his engineer may be.  To round out the first hour, Kevin and Curt talk about the interview with Malukas, and some of the things David talked about, and their thoughts on the whole deal. They also talk about the schedule for Gateway.  In the second hour of the show, Kevin and Curt talk about an auction of some racing items that will support victims of the FedEx shooting in Indianapolis. They talk about the Alex Palou F1 rumors, and if they hold any water. Kevin talks about how Palou could take a risk and go for the F1 career, and why Audi might want Palou on the team. They also bring up the nature of Palou's legal issues.  Later in the second hour, Kevin and Curt talk about the controversial NASCAR finish involving Austin Dillon, and how NASCAR has seemingly allowed a driver to wreck someone else for the win, and how this is the only series that this could happen, and how NASCAR has no rules against what happened. Kevin talks about how people like chaos like that, and it encourages viral moments of the sport.  Kevin ends the show with what we missed. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to an extended edition of Motorsport101, because quite frankly, we didn't think Monaco was worth a full episode of the show, but it made for a fine Keepin' It 101 opening segment. So if you want to skip to the Indy 500, fast forward to 19:20. In that opening segment, we praise Charles Leclerc for winning the Monaco Grand Prix in dominant fashion over Oscar Piastri and Carlos Sainz, while also casting an eye on a chaotic Lap 1, with Sergio Perez in a huge accident with both Haas drivers, and the Alpine's of Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly colliding again at Portier. Then we get into the 108th Running of the Indy 500, with Josef Newgarden and Pato O'Ward going head-to-head for the win once again, with Josef going back-to-back for 500 wins for the first time since 2002. We talk about how they did it, as well as the polarising characters of Newgarden and O'Ward in 2024, something guest host RyanErikKing called "This generations Foyt and Andretti." We also talk about the big winners and losers of the race, such as Kyle Larson, Alex Palou, Christian Rasmussen and Conor Daly, and some of the drivers who struggled like Will Power and Honda as a engine supplier in general. And we deal with the breaking news of Tom Blomqvist being benched at Meyer Shank Racing for the return of Helio Castroneves. All that and more in the next Motorsport101!

Our annual Indy 500 retro special episode features special guest Kenny Brack, looking back on his landmark 1999 Indy win, 25 years ago. Brack explains how, after failing to get on the F1 grid, he landed in the newly formed Indy Racing League, first with Galles Racing in 1998, and then with Foyt, for whom he won the IRL title and the Indy 500 the following year. He recalls the 1999 race, what it did for his career generally (and in Sweden especially), and also packs in some other key career events like the 2003 Texas crash he was lucky to walk away from, and how his comeback in 2005 was enough for him to call time on his career. That comeback came with Rahal, a team he has joined again as a consultant in 2024 - and he explains that move, too. Ahead of the interview, host Jack Benyon is joined by The Race's Matt Beer, to provide background on the unusual racing landscape in the US at the time of Brack's victory, when top-level single-seater racing was split between the IRL and CART (and top teams like Ganassi and Penske weren't racing at the 500). Jack also speaks to journalist, podcaster and media ace Mattias Persson, a Swede who explains how important Brack's win was for helping the country fall in love with motorsport again after a tough period, and how Brack helped inspired the current crop of Marcus Ericsson and Felix Rosenqvist.

The Bojangles Studio is graced by IndyCar royalty this week as Dale Earnhardt Jr. and his co-host Mike Davis sit down with Scott Dixon. Since emerging on the American open-wheel racing scene in 1999, Dixon has written his name into the history books (between Foyt and Andretti, mind you) by winning six IndyCar championships, 52 races, and the 2008 Indianapolis 500. The interview covers Scott's early life and introduction to auto racing, which came thanks to his father's own racing endeavors and the family promoting a dirt track in Townsville, Australia. Dixon seemed destined for success as he won his way through the kart and lower Formula ranks in Australia and New Zealand, but with every progression came exponential budget growth. As his parents had already mortgaged their home to support his racing endeavors, his father and some local businessmen started an investment corporation that would sell shares of Scott's potential career earnings to help keep him on track. The result was Dixon moving stateside in the late 90s, wowing Stefan Johansson in a test at Sebring and taking a seat in the Indy Lights Series, where he would win the championship in resounding fashion in 2000, beginning his dominance in American open-wheel racing.The interview also discusses Scott's tenure at Chip Ganassi Racing, his family life, and the comparability of stock cars and championship cars.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
