Cars and Characters

Ghost Tracks is not only a look at race tracks, but at cars and characters. That’s what  Gordan  Maltby of Porsche 356 Registry. Here is the complete review.

Ghost Tracks is a fascinating look not only at the venues, but the cars and characters that made up early SCCA racing across this country. Pete Hylton weaves historical data with personal stories and lots of great old photos from tracks that were famous, and some that most of us have never heard of. As a midwesterner, it’s fun for me to read about once-thriving road courses like Meadowdale and Lynndale Farms, and to see photos from the first years of Road America. Tracks from all other parts of the country are also covered in detail, including the many airport and military base courses that gave SCCA a running start in its formative years. For any road racing fan, this is an enlightening and entertaining trip down memory straightaway.
