CART The First 20 Years 1979-1998 Book

CART: The First 20 Years reviews the formation of the organization and its history to date, this beautifully illustrated book is perfect companion to the previous Autocourse CART Official Yearbooks, which have documented each season since 1993. There is much to tell, such as stories of the Penske and Ganassi dynasties that serve as bookends for CART’s first 20 years. The book examines CART’s political structure and the involvement of major auto manufacturers, tire companies and race promoters. It deals with the contributions of British racing firms like March, Lola, Reynard, Ilmor and Cosworth. It looks at its champions, including Mario Andretti, Emerson Fittipaldi and Nigel Mansell. There are also stories of famous racing families and personalities; detailed statistics and race records; numerous features; and a year-by-year summary of the major developments in the sport.
