Anatomy of Speed: Inside the World's Great Race Cars

This book was one of the harder-to-find books in my collection but the effort was well worth it. This book is like taking a chainsaw to your favorite race car, except this is does not have the corresponding mess. The illustrations are awesome! If you are thinking about becoming a race car engineer, designing your own race car, or just want to see inside the skin of a race car, this book is for you.
