The Put-in-Bay Road Races 1952-1963

<p> A great little sports car race took place on an island in Lake Erie offshore of Sandusky Ohio. The drivers came on ferry boats to compete for silver cups in an age when there were no sponsors and no prize money. The drivers were car salesmen stock brokers engineers printers etc. Often the cars they raced were those they drove as daily transportation: MGs Porsches Triumphs Alfas and others. In this well-illustrated history (full color throughout the ebook edition) drivers officials mechanics and spectators share their stories. The text paints a vivid picture of the sports car racing scene in post-war America.</p>
