AJ Foyt..
...after "kissing" the wall at at Indy at oh, say a buck-seventy-five, some years ago, was being checked out at the infield care center...the Doctors told him he looked OK but they wanted to send him to Methodist for X-Rays. As they wheeled AJ out on the gurney they headed for a waiting medical helicopter. AJ jumped off the gurney and as he bolted was heard to say "Hell, NO, you can get KILLED in one 'o them things!"
I don't remember who after losing it and spinning off a corner was asked "did you run out of brakes?" replied, "Hell no! I ran outta talent!!!"
