High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Jimmy Davies (August 18 1929 Glendale, California – June 11, 1966 Chicago, Illinois) was an American racecar driver in Champ cars and midgets. He was the second man to win three USAC National Midget Championships. . When Davies won the 100-mile (160 km) AAA Championship race at Del Mar, California on November 6, 1949 - aged 20 years, 2 months, 29 days, he became the youngest driver to win a race in a major U.S. open wheel series, a record not broken until Marco Andretti won the IRL race at Sonoma, California in 2006. Davies raced AAA on a false birth certificate showing him older, (as did Troy Ruttman and Jim Rathmann), and was racing illegally.
