After seeing some of the IRL liveries, I believe I'd have to give the nod to Marco's NYSE livery. With Penske, I wonder why they didn't (couldn't?) go with the Marlboro barcode. The "Team Penske" signage has a sort of will race for food look to it... though we all know the money is still there."Every generation's memory is exactly as long as its own experience." --John Kenneth Galbraith

Yes, this is true. But Penske has been in that business (and others) for many years. Penske has always been vocal about not spending his own (company) money to go racing. Imagine the exposure he could get by running a Penske sponsored car in NASCAR. Won't happen.

Plus Phillip Morris and Mobil still foot most of the bill anyway.HOO HOO HOO HOOSIERS !

One can expense the cost of sponsorship, but not the value of sponsorship. Funding contributed by Altria or Mobil would be considered income to the team. I'll go out on a (short) limb and predict that if only one American open wheel team has full sponsorship in the near or distant future, it will be Penske. Love him or hate him, he's as connected as Don Corleone.

I thought through all this media hype, Danica was the best thing since sliced bread, but still she has no wins and still looks foolish on the track.
Shes sort of like Jr. and Waltrip and needs to concentrate on racing and not modeling/commercials.Brian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)
