THE
CHEQUERED FLAG - 100 YEARS OF MOTOR RACING-
The Chequered Flag" is a
complete record of the world's most popular sport at the
top level. The author gives a year by year narrative
account of motor racing from the first road race run in
France in 1894 to the present. Charting the astonishing
technical development of the racing car over the last
100 years, and of the sport itself from road racing to
organized sport, and the divergent strands on either
side of the Atlantic, he discusses the drivers, the
cars, the designers, the impresarios, and the overriding
importance and influence of commercialism. The book has
an extensive cross-referencing system for easy access of
information, a photograph of every winning type of car,
every World Champion and every American Champion and
detailed results tables for every year. Book n almost
new condition with very good jacket. This is a large
heavy book. Would make a great gift |

MOTOR-RACING'S STRANGEST RACES -In
1894, when the motley assortment of steam and
petrol-powered vehicles lined up at the start of the
trial from Paris to Rouen, motor-racing's colourful
history was launched. Many of the pioneering events were
death-defying, trans-continental marathons, in which the
competitors were obliged to negotiate basic dirt tracks,
muddy bogs, fast-flowing rivers, over-zealous policemen
and a seemingly endless supply of stray dogs. Barely
contained in this new hardback edition are 80+ bizarre,
brilliant and bonkers stories from over a century of
motor racing. They include the Frenchman who drove 25
miles in reverse; the Grand Prix where the leading
drivers were so far ahead that they stopped for a meal
in the pits; the Le Mans 24-hour race won by a car
patched up with chewing gum; and the driver who drunk
six bottles of champagne on the way to winning the
Indianapolis 500. Book in very good condition paperback,
278 pages |
