"Celebrating the Spirit of Competion"

From the very earliest days of the automobile, racing was used to  demonstrate the superiority of one manufacturer over another.  The Simeone Foundation Museum celebrates this "Spirit of Competition" with a collection of some of the rarest and most significant sports racing cars ever built.  I highly recommend this museum to anyone and everyone.  It is trully one of Philadelphia's treasures!
