ReplyDeleteI was there for the Bruce & Denny show in Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin.
They were the guys that taught me that fast is boring. In the sense that it is undramatic. Smooth, consistent, quiet... and fast. I learned to watch for these traits to pick out the best drivers.
It was also a great thrill for me to watch one of my personal heroes, Jackie Stewart, in this series.
As long as we're talking about books, I found a great one last weekend about the racing career of another of my heroes - Paul Newman.
It's called "Winning: The Racing Life of Paul Newman" and has some absolutely fabulous photos.
