Description
Hudson Hornet
In this episode I cover the Hudson Hornet, a car that dominated early stock car racing thanks to its flathead straight six engine, step-down chassis design, and its low slung, aerodynamic body. The Hudson Hornet would take multiple championships but eventually fall behind in sales due to it never being given a V8 and having an older look that could not be easily updated.
Thanks for Listening!
