Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

"Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."
Marty Reid, Las Vegas, October 16th 2011
Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.

Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
Good morning from the start/finish line at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
