City of Speed Los Angeles and the Rise of American Racing

Los Angeles isthe City of Speed. For decades, stretching back to the early 1920s, L.A. and Southern California have offered up the fastest, bravest, craziest race drivers; ingenious, madman car builders; and ego-inflated promoters all setting the pace for American racing. Regardless the venue-drag strip, Bonneville, road race course, Indianapolis, Supercross arena, dirt track, NASCAR oval-L.A. always had the hot driver, the demon tweak, or the unanticipated angle to leave the competition gasping to keep up.Scalzo, Joe is the author of 'City of Speed Los Angeles and the Rise of American Racing', published 2007 under ISBN 9780760327203 and ISBN 0760327203.
