This volume looks at the history of car racing, and at some of the speediest vehicles around, from the Mercedes AMG Petronas, the Dallara-Honda, the Chevrolet SS, the Audi R18, the Mini and the Chevrolet Cruze. It also looks at the most famous, and prestigious, car races in the world, from Formula 1 to Indycar, NASCAR and Le Mans. A 'High Spec' panel on every spread details some of the jaw-dropping features of these cars, and a 'Fast and Furious' feature explains the basic science behind how prestige cars perform and are powered, such as G-force, combustion, friction, acceleration, and aerodynamics.
