Ready, Get Set, Go!
250,000
spectators gathered in Times Square to watch the start of the 1908
race. Six teams — representing France, Germany, Italy and the United
States — took part.
Sadly, The Great New York to Paris Automobile Race of 1908 also resulted in the largest mass Atlantic Ocean automobile related drowning incident of all time. Kidding. Neat pictures though...[The Great 1908 New York-to-Paris Automobile Race]
