That was the hairiest day I've ever had.

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.
Tony Kanaan, St Pete's 2007
You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
I never would've had my opportunity to race at Indy if it weren't for Tony George and the IRL.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
What a day. This place is magical. It is still the 'beginning of the season' for me but everything is starting to fall into place. This is the best month of May, ever.

Winning is always a great feeling, but winning at your home track, a place that you grew up at and a place that helped you fall in love with the sport of IndyCar racing... this is priceless.
Graham Rahal on winning at Mid-Ohio, Instagram, August 3rd 2015

Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.

It was so scary for me. I don't know what else to say. I don't know what happened but it felt like my front and rear wings were upside down.
Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.

The last time this flag was on the front row of the Indy500, I wasn’t born. Makes me proud.

I have learned more in one week here than I did in my entire Formula One career.

F1 is for sissies, this is proper racing, you can quote me on that!

Speed on ovals is insane. Currently re-calibrating my eyes.

It's like a reunion to come back here every May. I've never retired. I always say, "I'm not done yet."
Parnelli Jones, Indy 2007
I'd have finished my career very disappointed had I not won the Indy 500. It's an amazing feeling and an amazing event.

I drove it like I stole it!
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2006
The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.
Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009
...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.
