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.

So it was a bad result but good day. Led laps, good restarts, passed people, worked with the car, but finished crap! movin on!!

If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.

Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.
