The Michigan Motor Sports Hall of Fame is a museum in Hickory Corners that displays race vehicles, trophies, and memorabilia from local motorsports history. The collection features exhibits on sprint cars, dragsters, boats, and other racing machines that document Michigan's contribution to American motorsports culture.
The museum was founded in 1982 and relocated several times before finding its home at the Gilmore Car Museum. These moves reflect growing recognition of Michigan's importance in motorsports history.
The museum celebrates racers and enthusiasts from Michigan who shaped the state's motorsports community. Visitors can see the names of honored individuals across different categories, from sprint car drivers to land speed record holders.
