  • The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.

    Billy Boat

  • If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

    John Barnes on Sam Hornish Jr, indy 2003

    Ryan Hunter-Reay to Milka Duno after Watkins Glen qualifying, July 2010

    Simon Pagenaud on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
