That would be a team less with a long history.
Do you think Penkse would close DJR?

Too late to complain now...





Who is at blame? The consumers for not buying irrelevant or quality vehicles? Or the manufacturer for trying to sell irrelevant and poor quality vehicles?

More likely sell their stake in the team back to the other team shareholders, or to someone outside the current setup

Will Scott McLaughlin end up behind the wheel of a Team Penske Chevrolet as a full-time IndyCar driver in the 2021 season? While he still needs to compete in his race(s) throughout the 2020 season first, things certainly seem to be pointing in that direction.

Whatever.

Since Penske brought his millions to the game, what tangible benefit has it provided the sport? They won't do customer cars, they won't sell you parts at affordable prices ( ask Kelly Racing how much they wanted for some panels ), they won't even support you if you buy one of their old cars ( which are dogs according to MSR who dumped it after a few rounds ). They don't run in Super2 to give a young person a shot, they've been caught cheating twice in the main game, and brought the sport and it's premier event into disrepute.

So I'll say it again, GOOD RIDDANCE Penske, Story, Lucroix, et al!!!!!!!!!!!!

Except for the fact that 888 customer cars have won races, and at least one championship and a Bathurst, but continue your journey in the waaaambulance.

Two times championship wins and one time Bathurst win to Dick Johnson Racing. It's been a long-time between drinks for this high quality Queensland operation indeed. DJR Team Penske has been all kinds of great stuff for Ford fans and Shell marketing honchos.

They could bring more to the sport too: like robot-welded "Made in USA" chassis for all at the fraction of the price of the hand-made PACE units, but Supercars is not interested... Their loss.

Surely you have to seperate DJR Team Penske from Dick Johnson Racing?

That’s exactly what the series needs too, more things coming from overseas rather than being made locally
