One of the most famous names in motor racing, the lightweight, innovative machines conceived and built by Colin Chapman and his successors at Lotus have had a lasting impact on racing car design. This second volume of John Tipler’s pictorial history celebrates success from 1968 to the 1990s.
An Amazon customer wrote of this book:
It contains information on almost every kind of major motorsport in the world and also has information on some of the lower formulas.
John Tipler also brings his experience of racing an Alfa Romeo GTV6 in the AROC series to provide a detailed description of how racing cars have evolved over the years.
But arguably the books best feature are the amazingly detailed cut-away diagrams of many of the most important racing cars.
If that wasn’t enough the book also contains lists of all the winners of the major motorsport races and championships.
This book is a must for any motorsport fan.
