Contributions from these three Colt firearms will add to the proceeds from the eBay charity auction started by fellow IndyCar racer, Graham Rahal.

Donated alongside two Colt LE6920MP rifles, is a uniquely customized 100th Anniversary model of the Colt 1911 pistol, highly engraved to commemorate the 100th anniversaries of both the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Colt's M1911. Each gun is individually up for auction until Dec. 18, 2011 on GunBroker.com.
