Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cars, the stars, the thrills and the spills from 60 years of the Bathurst classic by Australia's premier motorsports journalist with a foreword by five-time winner Garth Tander The Bathurst 1000 is undoubtedly Australia's 'Great Race', forever part of the sporting fabric of the nation. The 1000-kilometre race, held on the world-famous Mount Panorama circuit, is both a legend-maker and a heartbreaker, all wrapped up in one thrilling ride. From its beginnings in the 1960s as a 500-mile race for standard production cars, the Bathurst 1000 has evolved into an annual multi-million dollar battle between purpose-built, millimetre-perfect V8-powered Supercars. After six decades of this extraordinary battle on the mountain, The Great Race takes a look back at the thrills, the spills, the legends and the losers of the race's history, from the legendary Ford and Holden battles to how the Mountain made household names of Peter Brock, Allan Moffat, Dick Johnson, Craig Lowndes, Mark Skaife and so many more, including the fearless women who have challenged the race. From the famous, edge-of-your-seat races to the infamous moments on and off the track, and the characters, rivalries, rifts and controversies, Aaron Noonan - Australia's leading motorsport journalist and commentator - enshrines all the high-octane action and gives an eye-opening account of how the circuit has evolved from a scenic tourist drive into a world-famous Mecca of motorsport. With special added insight into what became of the legendary cars that have conquered Mount Panorama after their days of glory, The Great Race is a fast-paced drive down Bathurst 1000 memory lane.

Download or read book Once Addicted Now Saved written by Bill Smith and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is based on my life story to the age of forty. I was a normal young boy growing up. I enjoyed being a kid and playing with my friends after school and on the weekends. I loved my mum and dad very much. We would go on picnics and go swimming and fishing. We used to go to Sunday school, and I loved that. I just loved life! When was thirteen, Mum and Dad bought a boat, and we would go away every second weekend. I left school in fourth form and started work straight away. I had a number of jobs and met a girl. Eventually we were going to get married. When I was twenty-one, I caught my best man in bed with my girlfriend. That put me over the edge. So I started into drugs and drinking to escape the pain. I was hurting every day. You could say I was two people: Bill 1 and Bill 2. Unhappy Bill 2 would get stoned and drink every day. I was not proud of myself, but that was the way it was. I moved to Port Stephens to start a new life, but the only thing that changed was living in a new area; I still did drugs and drank, and one day I thought about committing suicide. Then one day I got down on my knees and cried out to God. He heard my cries, and I started going to church and was saved. I was delivered from drugs and drunkenness. It's now been eighteen years since Ive had drugs or been drunk. God performed a miracle in me, and I want that for other people.
