When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!

Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.
