SAN RAMON, CA and LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 14, 2011) - eQuest, the leading international job distributor for the Global Fortune 500, in affiliation with eQuest's OFCCP Compliance Division, today announced that Mario Andretti will be a featured guest on a new episode of the American Dream series broadcast in over 177 countries on the Armed Forces Radio Network. The radio show is listened to by hundreds of thousands of American troops who tune in each day for news and entertainment.
Andretti is one of the most successful Americans in the history of the sport of professional racing. He was the only person to be named United States Driver of the Year in three decades (1967, 1978, and 1984).
During his career, Andretti won four IndyCar titles and remains the only driver ever to win the Indianapolis 500 (1969), Daytona 500 (1967) and the Formula One World Championship, and, along with Juan Pablo Montoya, the only driver to have won a race in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, Formula One, and an Indianapolis 500.
Andretti is also vice chairman of Andretti Winery in Napa Valley, California. He owns a chain of gasoline stations, a Toyota dealership in Moon Township, Pennsylvania (just outside of Pittsburgh), car washes, car-care products, go-kart tracks, a clothing line, video games and replica cars. He also test drives cars for Road & Track and Car and Driver magazines.
"I couldn't have been more pleased when Mr. Andretti agreed to do the show," said Kristin Best, host of American Dream. "He is a true icon and should be a huge hit with our listening audience."
AMERICAN DREAM with Kristin Best tells the inspiring true stories of men and women who have achieved the American Dream. The 'never say die' stories its guests share encourage, instruct, amaze and fire up Armed Forces Network's vast listening audience each week.
