John Andretti passed away in late January after battling colon cancer, but not before he worked with Jade Gurss to produce his autobiography. Gurss takes us inside how the idea came about, the process of writing the book, and who John Andretti was. John had an incredible memory that led to retelling great stories; being the ‘other’ Andretti; if working on the book was therapeutic for John during his cancer battle; if there was anything left of the project when John passed; conversations that took place about the project should John not see it to completion; the balance in working with John and not overwhelming him; how Gurss makes sure each subject (Dale Earnhardt Jr., Darrell Waltrip, John Andretti) come through accurately; the hidden gems that Gurss enjoyed hearing; how much time he typically spends with a subject; laying out a book project and what it’s like to be deep into it; a story he would love to tell or thinks should be told; why racing fans should read this book, even if they weren’t John Andretti followers. Music created by Tony Monge.
