“I was full of pride when I learned the road racing trophy would bear my name and that it was determined by a fan vote. It’s the ultimate compliment years after I retired, to have the fans remember me this way. That’s the really great thing about fans.  They keep you humble and grounded.  They let you know when you mess up, and applaud your successes.  And if you’re fortunate along the way, you make a lot of friends for life.” - Mario Andretti
