Before the Model T, Henry Ford built, and drove the fastest racer in the world. Let that sink in a little. By 1910, he was building more autos than any manufacturer in the world. And he wanted one more shot. He wanted his Model T to beat the fastest car the world had ever known. And this racer would hold the title of fastest car in the world from 1909 until 1919.

This video isn’t finished, and needs work. Still, I hope it’s enjoyable during this tumultuous time.
