Description

Passion For Speed puts you behind the wheel of the greatest ever sports and racing cars. Nick Mason of Pink Floyd has been acquiring and racing cars for nearly 40 years. With test driver Mark Hales, he has given the pick of his cars a no-holds-barred workout at Silverstone, Donington and Anglesey to find out how they compare under pressure. Feel the force of a Le Mans Porsche. Relish the challenge of a 1920s Bugatti. Savour the elegant performance of the Ferrari 250GTO. With specially commissioned photographs of every car, and even a CD unleashing the power and glory of their engine sounds, Passion For Speed is the next best thing to being in the driving seat.

Author's Bio

Nick Mason inherited his life-long interest in motor sport from his father, the documentary film-maker Bill Mason. When Pink Floyd commitments allow, Nick is able to swap the drumming stool for the driver's seat, and has raced regularly for over 30 years, including competing in five Le Mans races. He is also the author of Inside Out: A Personal History of Pink Floyd. Mark Hales is a professional motor journalist with over 30 years' experience of racing and testing virtually every type of racing car, and has driven most of the world's fastest road cars on track and road. He writes for a range of print and online publications including Octane, Evo, Classic & Sports Car, Top Gear Magazine, Autosport, the Daily Telegraph and the official Ferrari magazine.
