Product Description
The International Motor Racing Guide is the most ambitious motor racing reference book ever written. With unrivalled breadth and exhaustive detail, it covers all major championships and races throughout the world, beginning with the first automobile competition held over a century ago. When the first edition of The International Motor Racing Guide was published in 1995, it quickly established itself as an indispensable reference for journalists and motorsports enthusiasts alike. Now in this revised and updated second edition, author Peter Higham offers over 40 percent new and enhanced content. Among the expanded sections are Formula 1 (including all non-championship races), NASCAR Winston Cup, CART, Indy Racing League, and all major series past and present. The history of these major championships is presented in extraordinary depth: races, results, drivers, teams, cars, circuits, rules, and records. Additional features of this outstanding reference include: * Detailed coverage of national championships and events in more than thirty countries, with full race histories and circuit details * An A-Z directory of over 2,000 drivers, past and present, with full biographical details and records of all major championship and race wins * Coverage of past series such as the Can-Am Challenge and Tasman Cup Published in association with RACER magazine and illustrated with over 270 photographs and 227 circuit maps, this updated International Motor Racing Guide is now established as the "bible" that motor racing fans have been waited for.

2 out of 5 stars Trouble ahead   September 17, 2007
M. D. Fonseca (Thunder)
The trouble with this kind of data book is that it's already dated one minute before it's published. This book covers up until 2002 and, as you know, were already at 2007...

Also, in the Internet age all thsi data can easily be obtained in a lot of web sites. Of course, this kind of book has the advantage of displaying the data in a friendly manner and within only one tome.

Well, anyway, make up your own mind...



5 out of 5 stars Absolutely priceless   September 13, 2003

3 out of 3 found this review helpful

It seems that Mr. Higham has spent years searching through dusty basements and smelly photo archives to assemble all of this information. If you're interesed in finding out who won what when, this is the book for you. A bit mind-numbing really, as there is so much information gathered here that it is overwhelming.

For the serious anorak, there is nothing like this volume!

Highly recommended.
