    Unique Insights
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2013*

This author provides a unique perspective on the Trans-Am racing series. Because he is a collector and restorer of the cars that participated in the series he gained the confidence of the professional drivers, team managers, and fabricators who built, raced and maintained these machines.  They were willing to contribute to the book and provide a true insider’s view. The author can also speak with authority about the cars in the series because he bought, sold, and restored many of them.The book is a labor of love for the author and an opportunity to for contributors to give their side of the story.  The core of the narrative is the cars themselves and their history during the Trans-Am series and after it ended. This leads to a somewhat herky-jerky organization but that is part of the charm of the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Finally, a look at the cars and technology of the Trans-Am era
  

*by R***H on Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2019*

The book gives a detailed and concise look behind the scenes of the golden Trans-Am era. The in-depth insider knowledge of the author and the look at the technical details are a real enrichment even for connoisseurs.Unfortunately, the book is out of print and a second edition at affordable prices not in sight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great look at the cars of the glory days of the Trans Am
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2013*

As someone who has an extensive racing library with several books about the famed Trans Am series from 1966-72, I was hoping this book would offer something that hadn't already been covered.Most books previously written covered the great drivers and the racing, but in this one, author David Tom did a great job covering the technical details about the cars themselves. The author has personally owned several of the restored race cars, and not only covers his own experiences, he also has interviews with other current owners about their own machines and how they were able to perform as well as they did. This is valuable to describe details about the cars that 40 year old pictures just can't capture.There is also a lot of great historical info about how the series evolved like it did, and discusses some of the creativity of the team owners & car builders (like Roger Penske & Smokey Yunick and others) to exploit the rulebook. For example, he goes into the development of the Ford in line carburetor and the efforts Ford went through to get it legalized for competition (unsuccesfully, I might add).While most books gloss over the early years of the AMC program and the trials & tribulations of the Pontiac race teams, this book covers both of those in detail. In addition, the author has personal interviews with team managers like Bud Moore and Ronnie Kaplan on the series & what occurred behind the scene in their dealings with the manufacturers.My only complaint is that the book only covers the over 2 liter class with no info on the under 2 liters, which unfortunately seems to be a common thread in most of the books written so far.Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys the Trans Am series.
