It is difficult to justify just taking your car out for a drive some times, particularly in the current financial climate with the relatively high price of petrol. So when you do take it out for a drive you have to make sure it is a good one. Even better is if you can make the journey a meaningful one, travelling to a show, heading across the continent, having a destination in mind and getting their without touching a motorway.
These kind of journeys can make for some of the best memories and should be on your list of things to do, so it is always great to see a book that may inspire you to get planning. It is easy to say 'one day', but how many of us have said that and so far not done it? Well hopefully Classic Motorsport Routes will push us out of our indecision and give us something to aim for.
The book consists of 224 pages of maps and stories of some of the world’s greatest circuits, tracks and road routes, including the Mille Miglia and Targa Florio. It isn't limited to Europe either, it also takes in some fantastic routes in North America, perfect for a fly drive for those of us on this side of the Atlantic. Taking your car out for a journey along the route of the Mille Miglia must rank pretty high in most petrol heads dreams, this book will take you one step closer to realising it. Pretty soon you'll find you've run out of excuses not to do it!
Whilst not the cheapest book on earth it makes for an ideal present, and if it is going to fuel your dreams for a while then it will be worth every penny.
