Revue de presse

I have to admit that medern F1 cars do little for me - the racing can be tedious at times and the cars themselves hold little fascination. Gt cars, on the other hand, offer edge-of-the-seat racing and cars that still resemble cars that, if you are very lucky, you can still see on the street, albeit in slightly milder trim! This new book from MBI Publishing ofers a unique insight inot this exciting formula, starting with a behind-the -scenes look at testing and building cars, then moves on to the drivers, cars and tracks which make up the modern GT race series. Friedman also shows us some of the historical GT cars from the '50s, '60s, and '70s, alongside modern cars, all beautifully photographed. For Gt fans this is must-have book, and even those with only a passing interest will find something to enjoy. --American Car World
