I am a connoisseur of information!

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.

Beautiful chaos!
David Malukas on the racing at Texas Motor Speedway, April 2nd 2023

James Hinchcliffe after his first career victory, St. Petersburg, March 24th 2013
Back then there were 50-75 cars just trying to make the field. And they were the best drivers in the world. I remember thinking; I can’t believe this. I can't believe I got a spot.

Second place is nothing.

Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.
Franck Perera on racing ovals, Homestead 2008

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
I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.

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.

It's just great, pure racing.

Time to go to the back row party!
