    Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000

    Mario Andretti on Andy Granatelli after the 1969 Indianapolis 500

  • Second place is nothing.

    Marco Andretti, Indy 2006

  • ...if everyone agrees on a spec kit, IndyCar needs to really use the chance to get something that looks good, doesn't have all this winglet crap stuck all over it, and doesn't create all this dirty air.

    Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016

    Ed Carpenter, July 2006

  • 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.

    PJ Chesson

  • Gentlemen, start your engines.

    Wilbur Shaw
