NASCAR celebrations a 'major highlight'

The same press release revealed that a major highlight of the team's anniversary celebrations will be a dedicated 60th anniversary exhibit set to open at the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte, NC.

Set to open in late spring, the exhibition will showcase the pivotal moments that have defined Team Penske's journey up until this point, featuring historic race cars, championship memorabilia, and rarely-seen artifacts.

Elsewhere, it has also been confirmed that on track, Team Penske's NASCAR cars will run select retro paint schemes throughout the year in collaboration with long-standing partners who have played a role in the team's success.

Therefore, expect to see the Nos. 2, 12, and 22 rocking some exciting new looks at times this season when Austin Cindric, Ryan Blaney, and Joey Logano hit the track.
