In 1901, Henry Ford was 38, out of work, and one failed company
deep. So he built a racecar and challenged America's biggest name
in cars to a head-to-head race in front of 8,000 people.

James Pumphrey, Vin Anatra and Zach Redpath kick off You Better
Win: The History of Ford Racing with the story that started it
all. From the Quadricycle and the 2 AM test drive that required
an axe, to the Sweepstakes upset over Alexander Winton at Grosse
Pointe, to the 999 and Barney Oldfield. Plus James and Vin ride
in an exact replica of Sweepstakes at The Henry Ford, and the
crew explains where the name "You Better Win" came from.

New episodes of You Better Win, an 8-part series from Ford Racing
and Speeed. Next up: Ford in Formula 1.
