Download or read book The Driver written by Alexander Roy and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The riveting memoir of a life lived at the right-hand edge of the speedometer. Alex Roy's father, while on his deathbed, hints about the notorious, utterly illegal cross-country drive from Los Angeles to New York of the 1970s, which then inspired his young son to enter the mysterious world of underground road rallies. Tantalized by the legend of the Driver—the anonymous, possibly nonexistent organizer of the world's ultimate secret race—Roy set out to become a force to be reckoned with. At speeds approaching 200 mph, he sped from London to Morocco, from Budapest to Rome, from San Francisco to Miami, in his highly modified BMW M5, culminating in a new record for the infamous Los Angeles to New York run: 32:07. Sexy, funny, and shocking, The Driver is a never-before-told insider's look at an unbelievably fast and dangerous society that has long been off-limits to ordinary mortals.

Download or read book Beast written by Jade Gurss and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-04 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beast was the nickname of a shocking new race engine unveiled for the 1994 Indianapolis 500. The massive effort to design and build it in a seemingly impossible timeframe is still hailed as one of the most herculean efforts and well-kept secrets in the history of the Indy 500. In the award-winning book, Beast, bestselling author Jade Gurss chronicles the subterfuge and debunks the myths about this legendary power plant that persist twenty years on. Gurss interviewed key players involved in the race to uncover the story of how this engine powered the Penske PC23 chassis to one of the most talked-about Indy 500 races in history. The British race-engine experts at Ilmor Engineering offer detail about the design and manufacture of the engine. Roger Penske's team reveals how the engine and car were tested and developed, and how Mercedes came to be involved in the project. The story unfolds as Roger Penske and Mario Illien and Paul Morgan of Ilmor play every card they possess to create an incredible race engine--even rare World War II fighter planes and supersonic jets roar into the heart of this high-tech tale. Drivers Al Unser Jr. of the United States and Paul Tracy of Canada provide details on the tense weeks leading up to race day. The book reaches a suspenseful climax at 240 miles per hour at the Indy 500 noone can forget. Wrapped up in the drama and intrigue are real business and motivational lessons which made Roger Penske one of the most successful businessmen in the world and that helped Ilmor and its cofounders, Mario Illien and the late Paul Morgan, design and manufacture Indy car and Formula 1 championship-winning engines. Beast is not only a must-read for sports and race fans, but a compelling narrative for those who enjoy genuine lessons in business and technology or thrilling mysteries based on actual events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Racing World and Its Inhabitants In these days, when books issue from the press in such profusion, something more than a mere excuse is required from anyone who ventures to add to the number. The justification I beg leave to put forward for publishing The Racing World and its Inhabitants is that, so far as I am aware, no similar book has ever been produced. Various persons connected with the Turf in different ways have, indeed, figured as authors. Holcroft the dramatist, who, as a lad, was employed in a training stable, wrote about his early life; Samuel Chifney, the famous jockey, had compiled a small treatise on his profession four years prior to the publication in 1804 of his better-known Genius Genuine; and nearly a century later another member of the same calling, H. Custance, who thrice rode the winner of the Derby, followed suit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
