We're all back to square zero!

...one of the things that has always been wrong with that theory that NASCAR is the enemy... and they are... is because the people at NASCAR need to protect NASCAR.
Curt Cavin on Trackside, May 13th 2010
If you're an open-wheel racer and not at Indy in May, you're not really a race car driver. You just think you are.

Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.
James Hinchcliffe on an unnamed driver, Long Beach 2014

Wild thought. This 18th Indy 500 means I've been in IndyCar for exactly half of my life. 👀😅
Marco Andretti on getting older, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 18th 2023, via Twitter
The toughest people out there passing me are my teammates, and I don't get that. I think three of the four of us get what the camaraderie of Andretti Green Racing is.

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

The race that made the IRL famous!

My mom hasn't played much of a role in my racing career. In fact, I think she still wants me to join the Coast Guard. But I still love her.
PJ Chesson on Mothers Day
At 220mph friendship, risk and victory become extremely volatile.
Dan Wheldon
He said its the best team out there. If its the best team, he shouldn't have a problem.
Chip Ganassi on whether he'd allow Jaun Pablo Montoya to test for Penske, Houston, October 2013
I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.

Josef Newgarden on finishing 7th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020
I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.
Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
Since last fall I've been wondering what in the hell it's going to feel like, and now I know.

Felix Rosenqvist, Motorsports.com, September 17th 2019
I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!

I was a craft beer and a wallet chain away from being a hipster!

The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.
