Coun tless hours went into putting this exhibit together\, and I’m grateful to the IMS Museum team\, my family and Hendrick Motorsports for their c ontributions. Walking through the exhibit for the first time will be a tru ly special experience and bring back a lot of memories. I hope everyone en joys it as much as I will.”   “Jeff Gordon” is open until Febr uary 2027. The exhibit is included in Museum admission\, which can be p urchased online at imsmuseum.org. Note that during Brickyard 400 weekend\ , guests must purchase Indianapolis Motor Speedway gate admission to get  into the track\, in addition to Museum admission.  ###  About the Ind ianapolis Motor Speedway Museum The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum rep resents more than a century of motorsports history and is driven by its mi ssion to celebrate and preserve the history behind the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Indianapolis 500.
