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.

Jeff Burton on Danica Patrick, June 2010

Marty Reid, Las Vegas, October 16th 2011
Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"
James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015
Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.

Every podium tastes like glory and every victory more so.
Alex Palou on the calibre of competition in IndyCar, September 5th 2023, via Marca.com
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.
