On Monday morning, we woke to the news that Hulman & Co. is selling the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, IndyCar and related businesses to Penske Corp.

Hulman & Co. has owned the track since 1945. Monday's news release did not specify how much Penske is paying to buy the track, the NTT IndyCar Series and Indianapolis Motor Speedway Productions.

I'm sure the negotiations will result in him getting it for a good price...with all of his wins in the 500, people have been saying "he practically owns this place"!!! The figuratively is now becoming reality!
