A look at racing and other things of interest from the author of two volume A.J. Foyt biography, "Black Noon" and "Indy 500 Memories."

Wow. $42.9M and this Cobra Daytona Coupe wasn't even a race winner on the international stage. https://t.co/rnEYAWuj1F

The midnight ride of A.J. Foyt. One of Foyt's most remarkable-and mostly unknown-victories happen in the middle of the night on July 3, 1983. @AJFoyt14 @IndyCar @NASCAR @IMSA

The Chinese are coming! And @F1 better get ready. @BYDCompany has passed @Ford and @Honda in sales, has its sights on Toyota and wants to use #autoracing to help reach its goals. https://t.co/eRJ4ROY4qw

A.J. Foyt often said, "Why should I go back to @24hoursoflemans? I went there as rookie and won, so why should I go back." But he nearly did in 1984 with Preston Henn and Hurley Haywood. IMSA HOF photo. https://t.co/6A3nSN0RXc

@SantinoFerrucci says, "I can never thank Larry (Foyt) enough for what he's done for my career. I'm just thrilled to be here year after year. I do love driving for @AJFoytRacing. I think I have a long-term home here. I would like to start winning some races with these guys. I think that's really the next step." @IndyCarOnFOX

@FRosenqvist was victorious, but for once second place wasn't the first loser. @malukasdavid was a winner too. @IndyCarOnFOX #Indy500

Advance copies of Vol 2 of my biography, "A.J. Foyt: The Epic Story of an American Sports Legend" have arrived and the first went to the man himself. "My friends said the first volume was good, so thank you," he said. No A.J., thank you, it was an honor. @IndyCarOnFOX #Indy500 @AJFoytRacing

[Art Garner @artpgarner]

With #Indy500 qualifying on tap, time to recall @AJFoytRacing's overlooked 1990 run. "A classic display of good ‘ol’ American, oval-track, seat-of-the-pants ingenuity." @IndyCarOnFOX

When Kenny Bräck thought he was getting fired from @AJFoytRacing, then went on to win the #Indy500. @IndyCarOnFOX
