Legendary Race Cars by B Wasef
Legendary Race Cars
by Basem Wasef
McLaren, Lotus, Maserati, Ferrari—simply saying the names of the world’s great racecar makers is thrilling to their fans. The words sound fantastic on their own; still powerful even after all the years they’ve been household words. That’s because the names bring with them remembered images and sounds of the fastest and most exotic automobiles mankind has ever made.
In the same vein as his 2007 book Legendary Motorcycles, Basem Wasef has put together a stunning photo book covering the top cars from the first century of automobile racing. Cars as varied as the 1911 Marmon Wasp that won the very first Indianapolis 500 and Colin McRae’s 555 Subaru Impreza are extensively profiled, along with the men and women who drove them.
