Pedal to the Metal through August 14
Pedal to the Metal examines the need for speed through a variety of objects. Pedal cars, midget and sprint race cars, race art and memorabilia, and a film about racing explore how different generations have chased the thrill of acceleration. Items from the Museum of American Speed in Lincoln, NE comprise the bulk of this exhibit. The racing museum was created by “Speedy Bill” and Joyce Smith to present a chronology of automotive racing engine and speed equipment development. The collection results from the Smiths’ personal involvement in racing and hot rodding, and their lifelong passion for collecting and preserving racing and automotive history.
