It's crewchief and mechanic Gary Medley's 70th birthday today.

Medley's many riders had this to say to him:

Scott "Mr Daytona" Russell: "Happy birthday Gary! We won some races together didn't we? I'll never forget Daytona and the win at Suzuka! Have a good day buddy!"

Doug Chandler: "Happy birthday, Med'. You're now officially an old fart!"

Ben Bostrom: "Next time let me know what the plan is, okay? Happy birthday!"
