Beyond his endeavors on the track, Farley holds the prominent position of President and CEO of Ford Motor Company, showcasing his deep passion for automobiles that extends into his professional life.
Farley's racing journey isn't confined to modern series; he is an avid collector and racer of vintage vehicles. His collection includes iconic cars like a 1965 Ford GT40, a 1966 427 Cobra, and a 1978 Lola 298, which he frequently races in historic events around the world. This enthusiasm for classic racing highlights his appreciation for the heritage and legacy of motorsports. In 2023, Farley took his racing career a step further by debuting as a pro driver in the IMSA VP Racing SportsCar Challenge, driving a Multimatic Motorsports Mustang GT4.
His participation in the 2024 Mustang Challenge with MDK Motorsports further demonstrates his commitment to grassroots racing and the Mustang brand. Driving a Mustang Dark Horse R, Farley embraced the challenge of competing against other Mustang enthusiasts. His racing livery even paid homage to the first Mustang to win at Mid-Ohio, driven by Jerry Titus in 1967. Farley's unique position as a CEO and racing driver allows him to connect Ford's motorsport pedigree with its road car offerings, breathing new life into the brand and inspiring both employees and fans alike. He also hosts a podcast called "DRIVE", which explores the influence of cars on our lives.
