B.S. Levy has been racing and writing about it for almost 50 years. He "earned his spurs" working as a parts counterman, a mechanic, a shop owner, an upscale car salesman (during which time he had a Rolls-Royce convertible taken from him at gunpoint on a test drive), a successful amateur and semi-pro racing driver, an award winning motoring journalist, and served as a stunt driver when The Blues Brothers movie was shooting in Chicago. His The Last Open Road series of novels have earned rave reviews everywhere and become genuine cult classics.
