Museum of American Speed

The Museum of American Speed is a racing museum in Lincoln that collects cars, engines, and parts from many decades of motorsport. The collection features vehicles from the early 1900s through modern racing machines displayed in large exhibition spaces.

The museum was founded in 1992 to preserve racing history and vehicles from America's motorsport past. Over the years it has grown into a major collector of racing engines and machines from many different racing eras.

Visitors can see how racing shaped American innovation and engineering ambitions over the generations. The cars and engines on display reflect the country's passion for speed and mechanical competition.

Plan to spend at least 2-3 hours to explore the museum, and wear comfortable shoes since there is much walking. Guided tours are available but visitors can also explore at their own pace through the exhibition spaces.

The museum holds one of the world's largest collections of historic Miller and Offenhauser racing engines. These specialized motors were legendary in the earliest days of American racing and are now extremely rare to find anywhere.
