Tough subject. I grew up involved in auto racing , from drag racing to the Indy 500. Shaw's Gentlemen Start Your Engined , was a must. Joe Scalzo's Stand on the Gas, for sprint car racing. Also John Sawyer's The Dusty Heroes. The Unfair Advantage. I'm reading Shunt right now. A biography on James Hunt. Nice book. Last but not least, for humor, Stroker Ace. It's a lot better than the movie.
