One of the largest-scale automotive competitions in history, the Great Race covered 22,000 miles from New York City to Paris, in 1908. George Schuster emerged victorious at the helm of this Thomas Flyer, on display at the 2008 Pebble Beach Concours as part of the centennial celebration of this epic competition. The car is now in the National Automobile Museum Harrah Collection in Reno, Nev.
