What's inside 20 Great Race Cars?

The book uncovers what makes each car cool, lists key specifications like engine and top speed, tells a memorable story in the Fast Fact section and then rounds up the best options for finding the car in miniature. There are colour photos to illustrate each machine, many of them never previously published, and even a Glossary to explain unfamiliar terms or place names.
