A happy wife is a happy life!

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.

I think Briscoe and I had a pretty good race going on, but we got what we got.

Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.

If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.
John Barnes on Sam Hornish Jr, indy 2003
Andy Granatelli for as much as he put into the sport, especially at Indianapolis. I had to deal with that big kiss. I can still smell the garlic.

I've got the Grandfathers Club with Helio and Juan, right?!

I arrived in Turn 1 and I was convinced that I was doing flat out, but the foot was not flat - it had its own life, it was not connected to my brain at that moment.
Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.
Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
You don't get too many times like that at the Indy 500 where you're out there and you have a chance to win the race right in front of everybody on the last lap.
Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
It's a living, breathing, organism.
Eddie Cheever on Indianapolis Motor Speedway
It's a new... track... record!

Why do you think there are so many skid marks? It's not because it's a lovely corner.
John Andretti, Indy 2010
"Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."

Chip Ganassi
It felt way better than I ever thought it was going to feel!
Ed Carpenter on finally winning his first race, Kansas, October 2011
I can't control what size I am and how I'm built. All I know is the NBA doesn't lower the hoop for short guys.

Good news is we've won every race we've finished!

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.

If we're racing on Superspeedways with catch fencing, I fear we're just playing the odds until we have something protecting our heads. It’s a scary thing to say.
