The Museum is dedicated to the spirit of automotive competition and the celebration
of engineering excellence. A broad spectrum of racing cars and motorcycles
from the golden age of the sport to modern times are on display. Each vehicle
in the collection has been hand chosen by Bruce Canepa for it’s unique
contribution to the history of the sport. The museum is not focused on one
form of racing but showcases examples from multiple disciplines, everything
from Formula One to NASCAR and dirt track Sprint Cars to Le Mans 24 hour winners
are on display. The sports hero’s are also well represented with Championship
cars driven by David Pearson, Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Rusty Wallace,
Don Branson, Freddie Agabashian, Jacky Ickx, Mark Donohue, Don Prudhomme,
and Scott Parker. An accomplished racer in his own right, Bruce Canepa has
had the forethought to preserve and collect some of his own racecars from
the past. These include the 1981 Pikes Peak hill climb car that carried him
to 2nd overall and the last Porsche 935 produced by the Porsche factory, which
he raced in the IMSA championship in the early 1980’s.
