Artifact Overview

Formed in Stuart, Virginia, in 1950, Wood Brothers Racing is the oldest active team in NASCAR. While other early teams treated pit stops like leisurely breaks for the driver, the Woods serviced their cars in a fast, choreographed procedure that helped win races and soon became standard. Curators from The Henry Ford interviewed members of the Wood family in 2010.
