A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race
Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"

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
Beautiful chaos!
David Malukas on the racing at Texas Motor Speedway, April 2nd 2023
The race that made the IRL famous!
Eddie Gossage on the Bombardier Lear Jet 500, May 2009
Now they've got competition and they are not talking about winning. I feel like they want to sit around and hold hands and sing. I want to win.

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
