With their new Hitachi HDTVs state-of-the-art picture performance, Team Penske will have an incredibly life-like viewing experience.

Hitachi is the premier choice in projector technology and application versatility. With 20 years in the AV industry, they’re going strong and continue their superior level of service and commitment. The projectors Team Penske installed combine superior image clarity, high quality value and offer bright, vivid colors with razor-sharp text and bold graphics.

We couldn’t be more pleased to partner with Team Penske once again.” said Hiroshi Murakawa, Vice President and General Manager, Hitachi America Ltd, Digital Media Division.
