GOOD OVERALL PICTURE
THis book is often very superficial. It focus most in photos, but it reachs its goal, which is to give s a general picture for CART's first 20 years. It has the place-listings of every year from 1979 to 1998, but it has very few statistical data apart from that. I think it could have less photos and more data.

Disappointing
Compared to the typical Autocourse title, this is a disappointing book. Some excellent photos is the only highpoint.Based on previous Autocourse titles, I expected a chronological approach to the subject with detailed race by race statistics and some technical discussion. Instead, the book covers the history of CART themematically with the bare minimum of driver stats and superficial technology comment.This book could have been so much more; but instead, it is a trivial recount of CART's history. Very disappointing. Not in the same class as other Autocourse titles.

Autocourse again produces a winner!
For its entire history the CART series has been the primary focus of my keen interest in motorsports. With super-fast high-tech cars competing on a wide variety of oval tracks, road and street courses, this series has no equal. In true Autocourse style this book is an excellent way to either learn all about the formation and evolution of CART and/or bring back a lot of great racing memories. The text and photography are all superb!
