Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers. If somebody came to me and said, "Hey, you want to run Texas in an IRL car," I'd say, "Hell, no. I don't want to get embarrassed." She's doing that. I have a lot of respect for that.
Jeff Burton on Danica Patrick, June 2010
Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.
A Sarah Fisher malapropism, Texas 2007

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.

Chip Ganassi on whether he'd allow Jaun Pablo Montoya to test for Penske, Houston, October 2013
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!

Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?
