Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With success comes challenges, and Jamie has always had a target painted squarely on his rear spoiler. And it all started back in 1991, when his father put him behind the wheel of his first go-kart. With steely focus and a relentless desire to win, it was only a matter of time before Whincup made the leap to the Formula Ford circuit and on to the big show: Supercars. But there are ups and downs to life in the fast lane – sackings, loss of sponsors, the rivalries, the fans, the partnerships, the sacrifices and being true to the dream when everything looks like an off-ramp. There are freak accidents, split-second decisions that win the day, omens from the race gods, and a strong dose of self-made luck. In 2008, Jamie would seal his quest for the Supercar crown after several near-misses, and he wouldn’t look back. Seven championships, four Bathurst 1000 victories and a Bathurst 12-hour win in the books, you’d be tempted to ride off into the sunset. But that’s never been Jamie’s style. It’s just the start of his next act: team principal of Triple Eight Race Engineering and mentor to the next generation of champions. ‘You have to make a decision: What do you want out of life? Where do you want to go? How do you want to live?’

Book excerpt: As a broadcaster and motorsports legend, Neil 'Crompo' Crompton has had the best seat in the house for the last 40 years of Australian motorsport. From Allan Moffat to Jamie Whincup, Supercars to Sportscars and the Bathurst 1000 to the Indianapolis 500, Neil has had a front-row seat to see the biggest names, machines and events of this high-speed, high-octane sport. As a kid from Ballarat in country Victoria, Neil was obsessed by speed. It was a passion that would take him to the top of motorsport and see him, at 28 years old, lining up on the grid at the Bathurst 1000, driving for a team run by his childhood hero, Peter Brock. Over more than 30 years, Neil has raced wheel-to-wheel with some of the biggest stars the sport has ever seen in this country - from the brilliance of Mark Skaife to the sheer speed of Craig Lowndes. Neil has seen and done it all: thrilling wins, heartbreaking disappointments and witnessing the tragedy of competitors and mates lost to the sport they all loved. Since 2003, as the trusted and respected modern-day voice and face of Supercars racing on television in Australia, Neil has added the audio soundtrack from the commentary box to some of the most iconic moments in the sport. Best Seat in the House is an unputdownable memoir of one of Australia's leading motor-racing and automotive industry personalities.

Book excerpt: Since 1950, fifteen Australians and nine New Zealanders have raced in world championship Formula One, the pinnacle of motor racing. Three - Jack Brabham, Denny Hulme and Alan Jones - have won the world title. Two have died in the attempt without ever facing the world championship starters' lights. So few drivers make it to Formula One. Ever fewer succeed in the fastest and most challenging four-wheeled sport of all. Now John Smailes, author of the bestselling Climbing the Mountain, Race Across the World, Mount Panorama and Speed Kings, gives us the definitive story of our involvement with Formula One, from the pioneer days in the aftermath of World War II, to the championship glory of Brabham, Hulme and Jones, the grit and determination of Mark Webber, and Australia's current Formula One star, the irrepressible Daniel Ricciardo, all the way to potential champions of the future like Oscar Piastri. With over 150 stunning photographs, and interviews with drivers past and present, as well as the engineers, managers and team owners behind the scenes, this is the must-have book for every Australian and New Zealand fan of Formula One.

Book excerpt: ROFGO Collection offers an exclusive look at one of the world's greatest collections of competition cars. During the late 1960s, the success achieved by the Gulf-JW Automotive team fired the imagination of a young German enthusiast by the name of Roald Goethe and created a lasting impression. Decades later, and with the help of Adrian Hamilton, Goethe set about fulfilling a childhood dream. His mission was to create a collection of racers that had been backed by one of the most famous names in motorsport sponsorship - Gulf Oils. From sports-racers and single-seaters to 21st century GT contenders, the result is an unrivaled and truly evocative set of more than 30 cars - all of which are included in this exciting new title. Every car in the collection, from Mirage M1 to Aston Martin GTE, covered in depth by one of the world's leading motorsport historians. The full history of iconic models such as the Ford GT40, Porsche 917 and McLaren M23 - plus lesser-known curiosities such as the Mirage M5 Formula Ford car. Quotes from the drivers, engineers and team managers who were involved with each car. Full specifications and period race history for every car included in the extensive appendices. More than 300 photographs, including a specially commissioned photo shoot of each car and superb archive images. Limited edition of 950 copies.

Book excerpt: Told for the first time in his own words, this is the gripping inside story of Allan Moffat, an Australian motor sport legend. Allan Moffat is one of the legends of Australian motor sport. His extraordinary driving career, which lasted from the mid-1960s to the late 1980s, coincided with the heyday of touring car racing. His achievements included 32 Australian Touring Car wins, four of them at Bathurst, and four Championships. His Trans Am Mustang, surely the definitive racing touring car of all time, claimed more than 100 victories. But Moffat's impact went well beyond the winner's podium. He brought a new level of business professionalism to motor racing, pioneering the use of sponsorship in a way that would change the sport forever. Moffat, intense, reserved and driven, has been known as a man of few words. For years motor-sport fans have wanted to hear his story, and now Allan is telling it for the first time. His book is the compelling account of a young Canadian who moved to Australia with his family as a boy and became one of our greatest racing drivers. It's a tale of the epic rivalry with Peter Brock, which surprisingly culminated in a driving partnership and huge mutual respect, and it's about nostalgia for the glory days of motor sport in this country, when the concept of Holden versus Ford really did divide the nation, and when Mount Panorama was the true Mecca for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Australians. Filled with intense rivalries, huge egos, on-course stories and incidents, and all against the backdrop of our motor sport history over more than forty years, this is THE book for all fans of Australian motor racing.

Book excerpt: He is the most successful driver in Australian motorsport history. One of the icons of the sport, ultimately a Holden hero after starting his career with Nissan: but there is much more to Mark Skaife than just that. Move past the numbers--more touring car round wins than any other driver, equal to the best in touring car titles, five Bathurst wins, three Australian Drivers' Championships, and numerous other accolades--and you'll find a driver with a deeply entrenched popularity in the sport. This is Mark's story in his own words, from before the time the motorsport bug first bit to the final days of his time with HRT and the desire to keep racing at Bathurst. He talks about the level of commitment he put in to become the very best while some of those around him tell how this changed the face of the sport in this country. Find out what motivated him to dominate, how teams he was involved with twice forced the rules to be changed to give others a chance, what he loved about the sport, and what he misses today. But also discover the other Mark Skaife. An accomplished businessman with runs on the board, a family man devoted to his three children, a road safety advocate, and much more. This is the only place you will read the true story of Mark Skaife and all that has gone on around him.

Book excerpt: "From cricket tragic Adam Zwar, co-creator of Wilfred, Lowdown and Squinters, comes a hilarious, thought-provoking collection of big memories and the big matches that accompanied them. Every significant moment in actor and writer Adam Zwar's life is tied to cricket. He knows when his voice broke - it happened quickly and harshly during the 1985 Ashes tour of England. He got his first girlfriend during the First Test against England in 1990, then realised the relationship was over during the Fifth Test at the WACA. Obsessed with cricket since boyhood, the game has always been in the background - or foreground - of Adam's life. One of Australia's funniest writers, he tells of twelve formative summers, the milestones and the unforgettable moments inextricably linked with the game he loves. During one disastrous Ashes series Adam was making a documentary on Bodyline and facing Brett Lee bowling over 145km/h at his helmetless head, and when Australia lost to Sri Lanka in the 1996 World Cup final he was working as a driver for a Melbourne escort agency. And the time Australia was poised for an easy win against India in Kolkata in 2001, Adam was stuck in a Stuttgart hotel drinking milkshakes with AC/DC. Twelve Summers will entertain you, make you laugh out loud and move you - and not just because India beat Australia in Kolkata and Adam had to try really hard to not let the Young brothers see him cry"--Publisher's description.
