FORD sets J>00-mile record at Speedway ** < V ^ Again proves nobody outperforms Ford . . . d r a m a t i c d e m o n s t r a t i o n o f t h e k i n d o f performance and roadability that makes "all your driving more fun in a Ford! •w<T«> (Tint urro cvm tM MUM Ford'i rtesrd wai timed •nd certified by Hie United States Auto Club Phone 882 McHenry, 111. A Ford V-8 hurtled across the brick and asphalt surface of tough and testing Indianapolis Speedway . . . whirling through the tight turns and flashing over the straight stretches ... to set a mark that no stock car ever reached before! Previous to Ford'c record run, no other stock car had gone even one lap at Indianapolis at 100 m.p.h., but one of Ford's laps was timed at the electrifying speed of 113.7 m.p.h.! And Ford averaged over 107 m.p.h. for the full five hundred miles . . . close to the average set by the extremely costly, specially-built racer which won the Memorial Day "500"! Ford fully realizes that the welter of claifi^ and counter claims about racing victoEjps" (many of them completely contxadi$ »ry) must be confusing and disillu- ' to the public. Ford ran this^race agair$t time, over the true Classic distamie^ nd at the most famous track in /&ierijca, in order to dispel this cloud ofdoub| and disbelief and prove that no one outpisffbvms Ford! Peter de Paolo, leader of the team of drivers that piloted the winning Ford, states flatly. "No'other stock car could have equalled this performance!" And Pete de Paolo should know, for he was the first driver to win the "500" Classic with a better than 100 m.p.h. average. And now he comes back with a group of drivers to establish a stock car record with the great '56 Ford! Ford wrote this new mark large and bold in the record books. And the whole Ford did the trick. From the hood-full of throbbing horsepower to the road-hugging rear end, Ford demonstrated that it has what it takes to make your driving more enjoyable. Convince yourself that driving a Ford can be real fun. Test drive a '56 Ford. There's a set of keys waiting for you, so come in and see us soon.
