5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't ask for a better reference..., June 26, 2000

of the Grand Sport Corvette. This book has some fascinating ancedotes about the development and racing of these rare machines. It also has some of the most detailed photographs of this era of racing I've ever seen. If you need a reference for the Grand Sport, this book is well worth the money (and the wait - it took almost six weeks to arrive). It covers all five of the Grand Sports build by Chevrolet and follows them through their lifetime, even including some beautiful color pictures of the restored cars in modern times. I absolutely recommend this book for any fan of Corvettes, the Grand Sport, or just the racing of that period in history.

If this book even slightly interests you, don't think about it just buy it. The huge amount of historical photos and data is immense and immersive. You have to see it to believe it, just buy it!

I saw one race when John Mecom brought them back from Nassau in 1965. The car had to run in SCCA's C Modified class. The sight of a car that large accelerating (that) fast left an impression that's still with me today. Local owner/driver Delmo Johnson put on a driving display that none of could ever forget, as he passed the competition on, and at times off, the track.
