if you only read one book this year, it has to be this one!

This book will leave you speechless. I couldn't put it down. A true & honest account of one men’s obsession with speed and raw horsepower. This book is not for the faint hearted, but it’s very funny in places, and sad in others. A true rollercoasters of a life, with the final chapter of this incredible story still being written as Rosco attempts, the world land, speed record. A must-read book.
