This book focuses on the three decades during which Tony Gardiner was an ordinary spectator at the Brighton National Speed Trials; the previously unpublished images he captured then, together with his colorful recollections, bring back to life the dramatic atmosphere of a day at the races, Brighton-style.

За автора

 Tony Gardiner, who lives in Worthing, England, is a highly experienced professional illustrator, most of whose subjects relate to the 'Golden Age' of motor sport: the 1950s and 1960s. He has maintained a strong lifelong interest in motor sport, including club events, rallies and sprint races, as a spectator, official and competitor.  Tony first became interested in motorsport in 1957 when the Ecurie Ecosse team of D Type Jaguars won at Le Mans. Other forms of motorsport, including rallies like the Monte Carlo and Liége-Rome-Liége, with competitors driving over Europe’s mountain roads and snow-covered goat tracks at high speed, captured Tony’s imagination.
