The unfair advantage (the Mark Donahue story) with Paul Van Valkenberg is one of my favourites.

Enzo Ferrari by Brock Yates is good (he can be a good writer) his Cannonball also looks good.

True Blue by Bill Tuckey has some interesting stories on Ford Australia.

Any of Bob Judds F1 style if fiction books is good for a laugh as long as you suspend reality before starting.

Any one got any others or favourites (I always wanted to read Stoker Ace is it any good)?
