On February 15, 2020 we attended a fun event at Carroll Shelby Enterprises in Gardena, CA. I had the pleasure of sharing this event with my brother, Anselmo Ortiz. We found ourselves drooling over cars we only have in Hot Wheels. Check out our images of cars and memorabilia we saw during our visit.

In Ford v Ferrari Matt Damon and Christian Bale star in this “thunderously exciting” film based on the remarkable true story about Ford Motor Company’s attempt to create the world’s fastest car. American car designer Carroll Shelby (Damon) and the fearless British-born driver Ken Miles (Bale), together battled corporate interference and the laws of physics to build a revolutionary race car and take on Enzo Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France in 1966.
