Blind luck that I stopped by this area and saw the Penske Museum. If you ever get a chance, it's a very cool stop with a ton of history. 40 year old F1 car driven by Mark Donahue, many of the Indy 500 winning cars, and the biggest mystery that the museum employee himself could not answer.... and I could not find a connection with......... Why does the Penske museum have the 1999 F1 Constructors winning trophy for the race at Spa???

Another mystery you introduce here; how were you allowed to photograph the Marlboro cars? I stopped in to this fantastic museum a few years ago, and was advised that I couldn't do that, because Penske racing no longer condones tobacco use.

 

Constructors trophy - bought on an ebay auction!

 

shhhhhh.... I'm a rebel Frank....

 

Stop by there all the time- they have a great little cafe up on the second floor. Stopped in a coupe weeks ago during a cars and coffee and was surprised they didn't have a JPM banner up yet with the other drivers of NASCAR and Indycar. The lady at the desk had no idea who he was

They usually have a video running of old Can Am races etc with Sam Posey narrating- brings back a lot of memories as I try to find myself in the paddock at Road America...
