brad-keselowski-victory-lane-nascar-indy-brickyard-saturday-2012Roger Penske has won a record 15 Indianapolis 500s. But the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup championship owner remains winless at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in a stock car. He’s come close; frustratingly close. NASCAR Hall of Famer Rusty Wallace finished second three times between 1995 and 2002. Penske isn’t the only top-tier NSCS owner without a Brickyard victory. Roush Fenway Racing has gone 0-for-19 with runner-up finishes by Mark Martin (1998) and Matt Kenseth (2003, 2006) its best. Michael Waltrip Racing and Stewart-Haas Racing also are among top teams seeking their first Brickyard victory.
