And here comes Max Crappis into the pits!

I get one more opportunity to head into the defining racing venue of my career with a single, achievable goal: Win.

Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007

Beautiful chaos!

He's grounded.

I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.
Chip Ganassi
Andy Granatelli for as much as he put into the sport, especially at Indianapolis. I had to deal with that big kiss. I can still smell the garlic.
Mario Andretti on Andy Granatelli after the 1969 Indianapolis 500
...if everyone agrees on a spec kit, IndyCar needs to really use the chance to get something that looks good, doesn't have all this winglet crap stuck all over it, and doesn't create all this dirty air.
Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
If we're racing on Superspeedways with catch fencing, I fear we're just playing the odds until we have something protecting our heads. It’s a scary thing to say.

Gentlemen, start your engines.

Back then there were 50-75 cars just trying to make the field. And they were the best drivers in the world. I remember thinking; I can’t believe this. I can't believe I got a spot.
