Driven To Win New Exhibit At The Henry Ford Museum Plus a Look At The Only Hudson Hornet Race Car

I created this video so that you could see a large portion of the newest permanent exhibit at the Henry Ford Museum called Driven To Win. Sponsored in part by GM, this exhibit features race cars like Sweepstakes, 999, Old #16, plus cars driven by A.J. Foyt, Al Unser Senior, Salt Walther and more. You will see cars such as stock cars, top fuel dragsters, Corvette CR5-R , Lotus GT-40, and more.
Also included in this video is the only remaining authenticated Fabulous Hudson Hornet Racer known to exist. While this was not part of the actual exhibit, it was there on a visiting display from the Hagerty Foundation from mid July through mid October. Since it was a race car, I included it in this video.

When I am not making images for my normal (if there is such a thing) bodies of work as a photographer, I make plenty of fun videos for my Model A or other related videos from that time period that you can find on this channel too. Be sure to check them out.
As to gear, I shoot a variety of full frame Nikon cameras and lenses. Most everything is shot on a tripod to produce the sharpest images possible.

My 1930 Ford Town Sedan has eyebrow fenders and still has the original interior. It's certainly worn but it still is functional. I have rebuilt the driveline, suspension, and tie rods, installed a modernized Model A motor with oversized intake valves, insert bearings, and a high compression head. I also have a lightened flywheel and V8 clutch. The car comfortably cruises at 50MPH but I've had it up to 60MPH. I have also insulated and installed sound deadener which has made the car enjoyable to be in even at 90 degrees.
