Auction Sells Tony Stewart's No. 20 for $300k
Sold at the Barrett-Jackson Auction Company with plenty high-rollers and celebrity figures alike in attendance, the Monte Carlo racer was auctioned in the name of the Darrell Gwynn Foundation in addition to a few other items as you'll see in the clip.
Yep, that's right, well over $300,000 for a race car, a ring from Stewart's 2007 season, a helmet, and driving suit worn by Stewart himself. All in the name of a charity that supports spinal cord research.
Incredible.
Sure, Stewart's personality with the media and on-track ruffles several feathers, but you'll never hear anyone doubt his ability to give back to others.
You can follow along all day Saturday on SPEED with more from the Barrett-Jackson auction. The cars they auction are truly incredible, Bob Varsha and Mike Joy do a heck of a job commentating on the event, and there's plenty of celebrity sightings.
Evernham/Crocker Sighting: In a sign of the relationship that just won't end, Ray Evernham was at the auction with on-and-off girlfriend and occasional Craftsman Truck Series driver Erin Crocker. You can imagine that Jeremy Mayfield was happy to see that after his accusations in 2006 of a problem with the Evernham team due to that relationship.
