A Lifetimes Addiction to Racing Cars
Recent Amazon review:
Full of evocative photographs and personal anecdotes
This book intrigued me being a racing fan. It is a great book detailing drives from birth to present of a guy bitten by the racing bug. Not a Senna or Prost or Andretti but a guy who can race and win but never made the leap to higher levels. A good performer with drive and determination, made lesser cars win and made many friends who went on to greater things! Who can claim to have raced Senna? Who can claim that they worked with Derek Bell? What an interesting story!! Worth the few dollars and quite an interesting read. Great pictures never seen of multiple cars and I could not put it down and was disappointed that there was not more to read! A treatise of a backmarker, mid fielder and a true racing hero!!
Recommended to all who, like me, love motor racing.
