  • I WILL win at Kentucky.

    Will Power, Chicago 2010

  • James Hinchcliffe on bumping at Indy, May 19th 2018

    A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race

  • It's great that it's one minute after six!

    Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007

  • 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.

    Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016

  • I need a nap now.

    Tony Kanaan on Marco & Danica, June 2009 at Texas Motor Speedway

  • NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.

    Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016

    Sage Karam on everyone wanting to pick a fight with him, IndyStar.com, August 3rd 2015

  • I don't want to take a defeatist attitude here but it's going to be ugly. If IndyCar goes the domed skid route, we're going to be taking a knife to a gunfight.

    Sam Schmidt on Chevy's advantage with domed skids, Racer.com, April 7th 2016

  • ...one of the things that has always been wrong with that theory that NASCAR is the enemy... and they are... is because the people at NASCAR need to protect NASCAR.

  • If someone said choose one race to win, just one, and that was the only race you ever got to win, it would be the Indy 500.
