Bobby Unser & Parnelli Jones on A.J. Foyt

[racenutdon]

So what I'm hearing is that AJ pretty much saved Bobby Unser from wrecking at Michigan and Unser thinks Foyt should THANK HIM! Bobby fails to mention at his brother and his nephew each drove for Foyt at Indy. Al Jr. may have teamed with AJ at the Rolex 24 in Daytona. AJ is such a bad guy that others actually WANT to drive for him.

Lets see -- Bobby Unser never drove a turbine car at Indianpolis, Parnelli retired after the 1967 season and never drove the Lotus turbine, which only ran in 68 and Salt Walther's crash was on the opening lap of the first try of the 73 race which was subsequently rained out and postponed twice. Savage was killed on the 59th lap and Gordon Johncock won when the race was called on account of rain on lap 133.

Other than that, your memory is perfect
