British Touring Car Racing in Camera by Graham Robson
The first official British Saloon Car Championship was held in 1958, so 2008 marks the 50th anniversary of this ever-competitive, highly popular form of racing, now called the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC). This book is a photographic sweep over the entire 50 years, featuring plenty of well-known and exciting cars as well as numerous notable drivers, including World Champions such as Mike Hawthorn, Jim Clark and Graham Hill and colourful characters such as Gerry Marshall, Barrie 'Whizzo' Williams and Tony Lanfranchi. Containing over 250 photographs and informative captions, this book will be a stunning addition to the bookshelves of race-going enthusiasts.
Graham Robson, the world's most prolific author of motoring books with over 120 to his name over the past 35 years, knows this subject very well indeed, and has first-hand memories of saloon car racing back to the early sixties. His recent Haynes title Boreham: 40 years of Ford's motorsport dream factory, won the Guild of Motoring Writers' Montagu Trophy in 2004.
