Today, we want to give a HUGE shoutout to Presley Lannom and his partner Trevor for taking home the Tennessee Bass National State Championship over the weekend!
Presley and his team had an incredible season, taking home the honors for Top School Program on the youth-fishing tournament trail for 2022-23.
Presley represented Two Rivers Ford like a superstar all year long, taking home awards and honors at every turn in the Two Rivers Ford boat. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for Presley and the Mount Juliet Fishing Team!
Congrats guys!!
Stuff the Truck was a HUGE Success!
We want to give a big thanks to everyone who participated in the USO/Two Rivers Ford “Stuff the Truck” event last Saturday at Kroger. So many great volunteers got up early to help out with the event, and we couldn’t be more proud of how it turned out.
24 Hours of Le Mans
This weekend, the 24 Hours of Le Mans will take place in France, for the 100th anniversary of the event that began in 1923. The race is the world’s oldest active endurance racing event, and is a spectacle that has been a mainstay in the automobile racing community for a century.
The race was the feature of the 2019 film Ford vs. Ferrari, which chronicled the battle between Ferrari and Carroll Shelby, Ken Miles, and the Ford Motor Company in the 1960s.
The movie showed the epic, years-long process of failure and eventual triumph in 1966, that saw Ford sweep the 24 Hours of Le Mans with a 1-2-3 finish, that led to the iconic photo below.
This will be the last 24 Hours of Le Mans without a Ford though, as Ford executives announced in September of 2022, that the Dark Horse Mustang would race at Le Mans in 2024. This announcement is another significant move by Ford Motor, that gets them back into automobile racing, after a lengthy departure.
Ford will be re-entering the F1 landscape as well in 2026, after announcing a strategic partnership with Red Bull Racing back in February.
