TEAM PENSKE TO OFFER PRIVATE CAR COLLECTION AT DANA MECUM’S 37TH ORIGINAL SPRING CLASSIC
The winningest team in Indy 500 history and its visionary owner will take the Mecum Auctions stage in Indianapolis by storm this May with a wide selection of vehicles on offer from their private collection of pace cars and more. Roger Penske and the Team Penske racing organization have consigned an assemblage of 17 cars for auction, joining an estimated 3,000 collector vehicles to be offered in total throughout the nine-day auction event.
The city of Indianapolis turns into the car enthusiast capital of the world each May, as both the Indy 500 and the original, largest and best muscle car auction return to the city year after year to cater to the fuel-pumping hearts of car people all over the globe. This year’s auction will feature this extra special collection that serves as a multifaceted celebration of The Greatest Spectacle in Racing, and its accomplished owner Roger Penske is scheduled to be in attendance on Thursday, May 16 to see it off to its next round of caretakers.
Roger Penske started in IndyCar racing in 1968, when his team entered a stock block-powered Eagle driven by Mark Donohue. The crew first competed at Indianapolis in 1969, where Donohue earned rookie of the year status, and by 1971, he’d scored the first IndyCar win for Team Penske at the Pocono 500. In 1972, Donohue secured the team’s first victory at the Indianapolis 500, and today, Team Penske stands as a 19-time victor of the Indy 500 race, boasting more wins than any other team in the history of the iconic Brickyard competition.
