I currently work for Penske Truck Leasing and yes The Captain is exactly what that video portrays. Pretty awesome company to work for no matter if it is one of our many race teams or other businesses. Imagine going to that track as a young man and owning that track now. Pretty cool story.
I used to work for Penske Truck Leasing, and let me tell you guys his business is ran like his race teams, he truly knows how to do it, and I got a behind the scenes tour of the penske race facility in 2007 when I competed in a technician challenge competition, and it was the most beautiful facility I have ever seen, there was a room in the indycar section that had all the indy 500 penske winners murals on the wall, was incredible
Just stumbled upon this GREAT video of the team Penske history. I had a wonderful stint working for the Penske Auto Group for 11 years. In Rogers words, effort = results, take his words to heart.
Incredible man. Definitely one of my heros. I just pray to God that Roger serves God through Jesus Christ for all that he is and has. I hope he lives over 100!
Penske is the last American constructor to win F1 race - 1976 Austrian Grand Prix. And, except for Indy 500 between 1950-1960, one of only two winning US constructors - the other is Eagle at 1967 Belgian GP. Shadow won 1977 Austrian GP as British team.
The RED Corvette #6 race car is currently undergoing re-creation at George Haddad's Fabulous Restorations in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Check out its progress at FabulousRestorations.com, The Penske Project, and read more about this legendary Corvette.
JanitorIsBack HD has only been around since 2007. What your seeing is Standard Definition(SD) which was the norm from the 1970's till 2006. Like how we switched from analog to digital about 7-9 years ago.
It switches to HD at the 8:40 mark with the 2009 Indy 500. Most of the older footage is off of VHS records or old 3/4" tape so anything prior to 2006/2007 is in standard def and if from VHS, the quality is very poor. Great video of a great company.

Fantastic achievements. Mind boggling past, present and future success!
I hope to see some classic paint scheme for this year. 50 years of history is very impressive. Gratz
I love this! #Penske #22 #JoeyLogano #12 #RyanBlaney from #Nascar are my favorites 🏁✌💛

What pieces of music did you pull from for this video? Particularly 7:44-8:13.
1995 I think was Penske Racing’s darkest moment because both Emerson & Al, Jr. didn’t qualify for the Indy 500 that year
Last minute could be a great commercial for any product for them NGL
How much does Roger Penske look like Rick Mears at 1:18??
Awesome.
Best team in all of motorsports including F1
Roger you're my idol
My dream when I was young was to drive for Team Penske for my entire career and be the first to win 5 Indianapolis 500s.
you would think Penske would be able to afford HD video
+JanitorIsBack , they didn't have HD back then
+Thom Rasmussen the video was uploaded and made this year. I am pretty sure we have HD now.
JanitorIsBack Yes, because they had HD in 1972

outstanding
Time to conquer Le Mans perhaps?
+Pan Damasque Or Formula 1
Good luck in 2016 season
No CAn-Am no Trans-Am and very little credit to Mark Donohue who made the Penske mystic. So, so promo!
+tvnerd2008 its not like its a hour long documentary that can cover everything
It was stated in this that Mark Donahue was the cornerstone of Penske Racing
Background music sucks,too loud junked another video👎🏻💩
Penske ruined the 500 tradition. Big bucks buying races.
Carl Malone this is happening in all forms of racing.
And you're broke. 🤷♂️😂
what a great story and life
