Joey Hand and Ryan Briscoe came to Dearborn to see the sites and get their formal "good luck" before the race.

Mose Nowland, lends the boys a French flag he brought home from the win in 1966. (amazing)

Wow, that was quite a tour (jealous)! Didn't Mose tell us about that flag at R10?

The flag photo is a classic. It reminds me of how great the Ford museum is. Filled with so much history. It's the first place I saw a Gurney bubble in the flesh.
