When it was published in 1973, Corvette-America's Star Spangled Sports Car was groundbreaking as the first book written about the Corvette, or any single car model for that matter. It has since been credited with helping to kick-start the exciting Corvette hobby, and four decades later is still widely regarded as the Corvette bible. This fully revised and expanded edition is the result of extensive new research into the Corvette's first three decades by author Karl Ludvigsen. Delivering unprecedented insights and interpretations, Corvette-America's Star-Spangled Sports Car: 1953-1982 is a book for anyone who ever drove a Corvette-or wanted to.

There is no better way to learn physics than by having a problem to solve. As a gearhead, you have a secret weapon when it comes to understanding physics: you see it at work every time you solve a problem with your car or watch a motorsports event. The experience you already have tuning cars or motorcycles will serve as your virtual physics lab. Physics for Gearheads will show you that if you can learn about cars, you can learn about physics. Whether your interest is in increasing your engine's horsepower, getting more miles per gallon, or shaving seconds off your lap time on track day, you can use physics to gain insight into the problem and formulate a solution. Physics for Gearheads not only explains physics principles in language you can understand, but it demonstrates how to use physics to your advantage. Randy Beikmann is an automotive engineer at the top of the industry. And he loves physics. Through his teaching, physics doesn't look foreign - it looks like common sense.

For over 25 years Rob Siegel has written a monthly column called "The Hack Mechanic" for the BMW Car Club of America's magazine Roundel. In Memoirs of a Hack Mechanic, Rob Siegel shares his secrets to buying, fixing, and driving cool cars without risking the kids' tuition money or destroying his marriage. And that's something to brag about considering the dozens of cars, including twenty-five BMW 2002s, that have passed through his garage over the past three decades. With a steady dose of irreverent humor, Memoirs of a Hack Mechanic blends car stories, DIY advice, and cautionary tales in a way that will resonate with the car-obsessed (and the people who love them).
