Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.
Billy Boat
I'm a little rough around the edges like him and I say what I feel, there's no B.S. and that's one of the things I've always admired about him.
Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009

We're all back to square zero!

I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.
Marco Andretti, July 2006
They're creating a much bigger problem than the one they're trying to solve. And it's mind-boggling, absolutely mind-boggling, that they don't see it and that these discussions have even made it this far.
James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016
I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.

Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
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!

TrackSideOnline, May 2009
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.

NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.
Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016

PJ Chesson on Mothers Day
I WILL win at Kentucky.
Will Power, Chicago 2010
