Alex Gurney is the youngest son of racing legend and All American Racers Team owner Dan Gurney. While he was exposed to auto racing from the time he was born, he was not encouraged to pursue a driving career and only started go-karting on an amateur level in his first year of college. Upon graduating from the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he earned a bachelor's degree in business administration in the spring of 1997, he gained his parents' blessing to go road racing.
Off the track, Alex enjoys motorcycle riding with his Dad and brothers. His Dad is the creator and owner of Alligator Motorcycles, Inc. and Alex spends a lot of time riding the latest prototypes out of their Santa Ana facility. He also enjoys golf, poker tournaments and spending time with his wife Colleen.
