The most read book of all in my bookshelf.

As a club racer this book has inspired me the most. The insight (as far as I know) of racing, the people and the stress of a racing driver alone in the car is exact. This book covers one racers career from racing school to a couple of pro Trans-Am races. And the chapter of the first race as a mechanic for a new Trans-Am team is a must to read for every aspiring race car owner (/driver). The chapter on the 'fair' test of the 70's musclecars is a good insight into how to bend rules. Reprint it, my copy is falling apart.
