Extraordinary but true stories from over a century of motor racing. Since 1894, when motor racing's colourful history began with a bang (and a banger!), drivers, racers and lunataics alike have done many stupid and bizarre things all in the name of motor sport. Author Geoff Tibballs has gathered together this absorbing collection of stories from over a century of motor racing around the world. Revised, redesigned and updated for a new generation of petrolheads, this book contains enough extraordinary-but-true tales to drive anyone around the bend.
