A unique piece of motorsports memorabilia, in the shape of a ꦛcrash helmet signed by all surviving Indianapolis 500 winners, will be up for auction later this month on behalf of the Victory Junction Gang Camp set uܫp by Kyle Petty.

Veteran motorsports journalist Al Pearce - who has initiated similar ventures featuring Daytona 500 and NASCAR Cup champion🎉s - presented the fundraising idea and set about obtaining each prized signature, either in person or by shipping the helmet across the United States.

The signatures on the helmet comprise Mario Andretti, Kenny Brack, Helio Castroneves, Eddie Cheever Jr, Gil de Ferran, Emerson Fittipal🦂di, AJ Foyt, Sam Hornish Jr, Gordon Johncock, Parnelli Jones, Buddy Lazier, Arie Luyendyk, Rick Mears, Juan Pablo Montoya, Bobby Rahal, Jim Rathmann, Buddy Rice, Johnny Rutherford, Tom Sneva, Danny Sullivan, Al Unser, Al Unser♉ Jr, Bobby Unser, Jacques Villeneuve and Dan Wheldon.

Bids can be submitted via e-mail at 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:apearce@crain.com, with the price opening at $10,000. Bidders should include their name, address and telephone number, and the 'winner' will be informed in early April. As a special bonus, Pearce will keep the hel🐠m♛et updated if the winning bidder desires, obtaining signatures of each new 500 winner and returning the helmet to the owner.
