Artist Notes:
"On May 30th 1964, A.J. Foyt would capture his 2nd Indy 500 victory. He started fifth, dominated the race and led 146 laps. He averaged 147.350 mph, smashing the track record by over four miles per hour. When A.J. crossed the finish line, it would be the last time a front-engined 'roadster' would ever lead a lap at the 'Brickyard'. In 1964, Foyt won ten of the thirteen National Championship races, winning every race he finished! His finest tribute came from Parnelli Jones at the Indy 500 victory dinner, when he introduced A.J. as 'the greatest racing driver who ever lived'."
