Hi 'Little Al', I have been a huge fan of yours since the late 80s!
I always rooted for you, and I Can't wait to getting my questions answered by an Indy Legend!
1) You tested a F1 Williams Renault in 1992 if memory serves, can you give us some insight on that test, what other
drivers were there?, what was your impression of Frank Williams & Patrick Head?, was there a legitimate offer to go
F1 racing for '93? How did you find the car compared to an early 90's Indycar, acceleration/braking, handling, power etc?
2) With such an amazing family history of the Unsers at Indianapolis, what is your first memory of the brickyard?
3) Many race drivers say the best car they ever drove, or best lap they ever drove, was never 100% perfect, that there
was something that ever so slightly could have gone better, Al to you, what is the best car you ever drove in your
career and where / what track?
4) In 1991, the CART series left the USA for the first time to race down under at Surfers Paradise in Australia, you
raced at Surfers many times throughout your career, but what is the one thing that really stands out for you about
that first Indycar race abroad down under in Australia?
5) You're a two time winner of the Indy 500, as the reigning Indy winner going into 1995, if you could sum up the
month of May '95 in One word, what would that word be?
6) Do you still own the '92 Cadillac Allante & '94 Ford Mustang Pace Cars that the Indy 500 winner receives ?
7) You had an amazing record at the Toyota GP of Long Beach, what was it about that track that just seemed to
'click' for you?
8) Which team-mate during your career was your favorite, and if you want, which team-mate during your career was
the worst?
Thanks for your time Al, you will always be one of my favorite drivers ever!
