I feel like back in these days, it wasn’t common to not follow in your family’s footsteps. I applaud Ford’s family for letting him indulge in his passion.

Jim Sim. 72 yrs old . Being one of the few tradesmen who has made many types of wood wheels .this is fascinating. The tool kit is much bigger and mass production is no 1 my day it was all by hand except band saw lathe and mortise machine all final assembly was by hand with a ton of different clamps every so often testing for true when rotating side to side plus up and down . Tolerance about 1 mm ...

Disappointing that the History Channel didn't mention the Dodge Brothers' contribution to Ford's success. Ford admitted that he could never have accomplished what he did without the Dodge Brothers.

He means average speed when a lap is listed as a speed rather than a time. Nascar and indycar call the lap time this way and so does the isle of man tt. Its the same thing just a different measurement of it.

Next time you go buy BBQ briquettes look for the Kingsford brand which is still sold everywhere. That sub company was created by ford in the early Ford years. I was told it was a way for ford to make money off of even the tiny scrap pieces of wood by turning them into charcoal. I'm not sure about that part but it sounds good lol.

Rain, sun, rain, sun. If I am correct only about 20 cars finished. The first visit on my own to the 24 heures du mans. The 'village' was an eye opener to a young man with very French side shows, freaks, strippers et al. Nasty accident near the end with a car on fire.

The “terrible music” you talk about, is that the 80s ESPN Speedworld music theme? at the start of a Glory Day’s episode? Or something else. The Speed World theme is wonderful, and always got me revved up to watch a motor racing broadcast! I miss it.

Waaay back in the day, Henry Payne held SCCA autocrosses at the track he built around the grounds of Payne Engineering. He would frequently take either his 904 (with the 6 cyl engine), 906, 908 or 910 around his track. I recall the day he stuffed his 908 into a tree that was near the edge of the track. Somewhere I have a photo of my dad standing between his 904 and one of the others.

Los años 60's fueron para México sin duda los mas brillantes en el deporte internacional... Rafael Osuna gano el unico grand slam para México fue el u.s open en 1963... Manuel "pulgarcito" Ramos es mexicano que contendio por titulo de peso completo en boxeo...fue contra Joe Frazier,pero perdio.Pedro Rodríguez gana las 24 hs de L'Mans todo en 1968, Raga un básquetbolista fue el primer extranjero que contrato la n.b.a. aunque no quizo ir por jugar lo j.o. de México..Memo Echavarría fue el primer y unico mexicano en obtener un record mundial en natación, creo fueron los 1,500 estilo libre .. México incluso organizo los j.olimpicos y quedo en 15vo lugar con 12 medallas y asi recuerdo otrros logros .. Juanito Martinez en atletismo Yola Ramírez en tenis ,Ruben Amaro gano el guante de oro en ligas mayores y después les pasó otros logros que hoy no los tenemos.

1968 I was 12 years old. Back then not too many car racing, especially when one did not have cable TV, only roof antennas, and maybe pick up 3 or 4 TV stations. Maybe 5 or 6 on a good clear day.
