Book excerpt: He is the most successful driver in Australian motorsport history. One of the icons of the sport, ultimately a Holden hero after starting his career with Nissan: but there is much more to Mark Skaife than just that. Move past the numbers--more touring car round wins than any other driver, equal to the best in touring car titles, five Bathurst wins, three Australian Drivers' Championships, and numerous other accolades--and you'll find a driver with a deeply entrenched popularity in the sport. This is Mark's story in his own words, from before the time the motorsport bug first bit to the final days of his time with HRT and the desire to keep racing at Bathurst. He talks about the level of commitment he put in to become the very best while some of those around him tell how this changed the face of the sport in this country. Find out what motivated him to dominate, how teams he was involved with twice forced the rules to be changed to give others a chance, what he loved about the sport, and what he misses today. But also discover the other Mark Skaife. An accomplished businessman with runs on the board, a family man devoted to his three children, a road safety advocate, and much more. This is the only place you will read the true story of Mark Skaife and all that has gone on around him.

Download or read book Jamie Whincup written by Jamie Whincup and published by Penguin Group Australia. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With success comes challenges, and Jamie has always had a target painted squarely on his rear spoiler. And it all started back in 1991, when his father put him behind the wheel of his first go-kart. With steely focus and a relentless desire to win, it was only a matter of time before Whincup made the leap to the Formula Ford circuit and on to the big show: Supercars. But there are ups and downs to life in the fast lane – sackings, loss of sponsors, the rivalries, the fans, the partnerships, the sacrifices and being true to the dream when everything looks like an off-ramp. There are freak accidents, split-second decisions that win the day, omens from the race gods, and a strong dose of self-made luck. In 2008, Jamie would seal his quest for the Supercar crown after several near-misses, and he wouldn’t look back. Seven championships, four Bathurst 1000 victories and a Bathurst 12-hour win in the books, you’d be tempted to ride off into the sunset. But that’s never been Jamie’s style. It’s just the start of his next act: team principal of Triple Eight Race Engineering and mentor to the next generation of champions. ‘You have to make a decision: What do you want out of life? Where do you want to go? How do you want to live?’

This third edition has been fully updated to include a clearer initial explanation of the nature of geomorphology, of land surface process and form, and of land-surface change over different timescales. The text has been restructured to incorporate information on geomorphic materials and processes at more suitable points in the book. Finally, historical geomorphology has been integrated throughout the text to reflect the importance of history in all aspects of geomorphology.

Book excerpt: As a broadcaster and motorsports legend, Neil 'Crompo' Crompton has had the best seat in the house for the last 40 years of Australian motorsport. From Allan Moffat to Jamie Whincup, Supercars to Sportscars and the Bathurst 1000 to the Indianapolis 500, Neil has had a front-row seat to see the biggest names, machines and events of this high-speed, high-octane sport. As a kid from Ballarat in country Victoria, Neil was obsessed by speed. It was a passion that would take him to the top of motorsport and see him, at 28 years old, lining up on the grid at the Bathurst 1000, driving for a team run by his childhood hero, Peter Brock. Over more than 30 years, Neil has raced wheel-to-wheel with some of the biggest stars the sport has ever seen in this country - from the brilliance of Mark Skaife to the sheer speed of Craig Lowndes. Neil has seen and done it all: thrilling wins, heartbreaking disappointments and witnessing the tragedy of competitors and mates lost to the sport they all loved. Since 2003, as the trusted and respected modern-day voice and face of Supercars racing on television in Australia, Neil has added the audio soundtrack from the commentary box to some of the most iconic moments in the sport. Best Seat in the House is an unputdownable memoir of one of Australia's leading motor-racing and automotive industry personalities.
Download or read book Climbing the Mountain written by Allan Moffat and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2017-09-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Told for the first time in his own words, this is the gripping inside story of Allan Moffat, an Australian motor sport legend. Allan Moffat is one of the legends of Australian motor sport. His extraordinary driving career, which lasted from the mid-1960s to the late 1980s, coincided with the heyday of touring car racing. His achievements included 32 Australian Touring Car wins, four of them at Bathurst, and four Championships. His Trans Am Mustang, surely the definitive racing touring car of all time, claimed more than 100 victories. But Moffat's impact went well beyond the winner's podium. He brought a new level of business professionalism to motor racing, pioneering the use of sponsorship in a way that would change the sport forever. Moffat, intense, reserved and driven, has been known as a man of few words. For years motor-sport fans have wanted to hear his story, and now Allan is telling it for the first time. His book is the compelling account of a young Canadian who moved to Australia with his family as a boy and became one of our greatest racing drivers. It's a tale of the epic rivalry with Peter Brock, which surprisingly culminated in a driving partnership and huge mutual respect, and it's about nostalgia for the glory days of motor sport in this country, when the concept of Holden versus Ford really did divide the nation, and when Mount Panorama was the true Mecca for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Australians. Filled with intense rivalries, huge egos, on-course stories and incidents, and all against the backdrop of our motor sport history over more than forty years, this is THE book for all fans of Australian motor racing.
