There's only 2 known photos from 125 years ago today, when Henry Ford upset Alexander Winton in the race that changed auto history forever. No. 4 (Mr. Ford) passes for the lead on lap 6 of 10 and pulling away. Happy 125th anniversary @FordRacing!

Congratulations to the @redbullracing and Red Bull/Ford Powertrains on the first victory with the new engine. It won't be the last. So much hard work has been put into that program. Nice to see the Blue Oval on the top step again with a great team.

@HenryEPayne @Ford @detroitnews @910Superstation Will you be at track on Saturday? I will be there.

This was a fun video to shoot, Sweepstakes can flat out move - we got up to almost 40 mph at one point and for inquiring minds, yes, we did locate my hat.

125 years of Ford Racing deserves something special!

From Grosse Pointe Shores to Road Atlanta, we’re bringing a piece of our history to Petit Le Mans.

@tyson_jominy Each box will build all four. In theory, you could built Paul, take it apart and build John, etc.

I bought all four sets to create the display.

I think it is a retired set now.

@tyson_jominy My basement. All four

I pulled some old footage out of the Vault for this weeks video. Last year, Katherine Randall, a Ford Chief Application Engineer gave me an education on the Model T and the earlier alphabet cars that Ford produced before the T came out in 1908 before she headed off on the Durability Run between Lansing and Dearborn. This year she will be at the Cones and Cruisers car show that will take place at the Ford Engineering Lab on September 9th where there will be a lineup of the alphabet cars that Katherine is organizing. If you are in Southeast Michigan, come by, if not, stay tuned as I will be there and hope to create some cool videos. #ModelT #ConesandCruisers

If you’re in Detroit for dream cruise, make sure to check out our radio station. You can hear me wax poetic about the Mustang and the Bronco.

@Mike_kim714 great to see you in person on the course today. Fairways and greens tomorrow. Loved seeing your drive on 11. 240 yards to 13 feet. Just amazing. I know you see zillions of videos of your swing, but one fans perspective.

[Ted Ryan @tedryan64]

Best follow on golf X

Something I never would have thought I’d do.

What a day. Let’s get into it

@FreddyLA7 Let me know if you want a tour of the @ford Archives and the F-150 assembly line while in Detroit. Happy to give you a tour.

[Ted Ryan @tedryan64]

@FreddyLA7 If you make it to Detroit, let me know and I will give tour of @Ford Archives and assembly line.

I am here in Le Mans France for the famous 24 hour race, but how about a history lesson in the origins of Ford Racing 125 years ago? Henry Ford drove Sweepstakes to victory in 1901 defeating heavily favored Alexander Winton. I was fortunate to get a ride on a Sweepstakes replica at The Henry Ford Museum. What a cool day in the office! #Sweepstakes #FordRacing #AmericasRaceTeam #LeMans

21 year-old Elvis Presley checking out his brand-new 1956 Continental Mark II in Miami on August 8, 1956. Photographer Charles Trainor caught this moment right during Elvis's frantic summer tour of Florida.

Big news coming this summer in Washington DC. An amazing Ford experience will open in July to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary. #A250 #FordMotorCompany #ArsenalofDemocracy

The reveal of the Ford/Carhartt Superduty truck was amazing. We set up exhibits at the media briefing center and at Michigan Central Station where Dave Moore, the Archivist from Carhartt, also had a display. It was fun to talk about the shared history of the two iconic companies as well as the role both had played with our essential workers over the years. #Carhartt #FordSuperduty #essentialeconomy
