    PJ Chesson on Mothers Day

  • We'll see how it unfolds, and we're going to have to give each other respect and the space on the track.

    Arie Luyendyk, Texas '97

  • What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
