Going into Texas with four wheels on the car is pretty exciting!
Sarah Fisher after the 2009 Indianapolis 500

Eddie Cheever Jr. after Watkins Glen 06
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.
Scott McLaughlan on qualifying at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 22nd 2023, via Speed Street
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.

Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.

Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.
Tony Kanaan on the rumours of Dario Franchitti's retirement after Houston, 2013
"Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."

Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...
Simon Pagenaud on insomnia, Twitter, 4:31 AM, July 23rd 2019
And in 7 hours off to NYC!! Can't believe. Don't want to sleep thinking I'm gonna wake up from a dream.
Sebastian Saavedra, Indy Bump Day 2010, via Twitter
It's a new... track... record!
Tom Carnegie
Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
It was talent and skill, that's how I did it. A masterful display of driving ability!

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

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.

Dario Franchitti, Homestead 2009
Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

We are unified.
Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008
If they want to be on the front page of USA Today, they can be my guest. If I ever want attention, I'm just going to get out of the car and beat the hell out of somebody.

Heeeeeee's on it!

I'm just so f***ing disappointed!
Kosuke Matsuura, St Pete's 2007
I know a lot of people say that Iowa is in the middle of nowhere, but you know what, we get such a great crowd and they're so enthusiastic. As a driver you could put me in paradise, but if there's nobody in the grandstands then it's not good racing.
Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009
You're not going to out-Dixon Dixon!

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
