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.

Rick Mears
And here comes Max Crappis into the pits!
Paul Page, Michigan '99
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.

Eddie Cheever
I wish I could get my deadbeat family to participate.
Kurt St. Angelo on the IndyCarFanZone fantasy league, Twitter, September 14th 2022
The track is narrower than I thought! You watch the television and you see three cars alongside on the main straight - now I am in the car on the main straight and it's hard to imagine how you can fit three cars there at speed.
Fernando Alonso after his first test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

We're all back to square zero!
James Hinchcliffe on the start of a new season, Trackside, March 18th 2014
NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.

This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.

That's a good way to lose a championship.
Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007
I wasn't thinking, 'That's Eddie [Cheever] and he's in an Infiniti and so I need to beat him.' I was thinking, 'That's Eddie, and I want to kick his ass!'
Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
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.
Danica Patrick, June 2005
James Hinchcliffe on bumping at Indy, May 19th 2018
We are trying to fix them but when you start behind the eight ball like last year you are playing catch-up and you will continue to play catch-up until we get rid of these stupid kits!

Charlie Kimball to Dale Jr. via Twitter, Pocono, August 23rd 2015
I promise you this: it isn't the last you've seen of me at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. My last time there will not be a day when I'm walking out with my tail between my legs.
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
I've never been so happy to be in last place.

Dan Wheldon on the Indy 500
When you tug at a guy in the pit lane, I think that is taking advantage of your gender, because it puts me in an awkward position.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007
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
It was talent and skill, that's how I did it. A masterful display of driving ability!

Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.
Conor Daly on underglow. Via Twitter, July 16th 2020
If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.
PJ Chesson
I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
Ed Carpenter, July 2006
The Indy 500 was the defining stage of my career.
