Once upon a time, there was a guy named Max Balchowsky who decided he wanted to beat Ferrari and Jaguar at their own gameroad racing. The trouble was, he didn't have the cash for a factory racer. So he built his own. Using a Ford homemade tube frame, a soupedup Buick V8 and running on recapped whitewalls, Ol' Yaller whipped them all.Welcome to American Road Race Specials 193470 . These were the glory days of road racing in the United States, from the first races between imported MGs to the worldwinning MadeintheUSA Scarabs and Chaparrals, and on to the downfall of the Shadow.This is the story of the men who built and ran their own homemade cars in pioneer SCCA and Cal Club races on town streets, airports and then the first purposebuilt American racetracks. Here is Jim Hall, Lance Reventlow, Ken Miles, Carroll Shelby, Ak Miller, Balchowsky, Troutman and Barnes, Phil Hill, Dan Gurney, Roger Penske, George Follmer, and all the rest. . . .And the Ol' Yaller, Cunningham, Scarab, Chaparral, Kurtis, Devin, Zerex Special, Bocar, Caballo de Hierro, Pooper, Shadow, Ferraries with Chevy V8s and every other possible chassisengine combination a racer could think of.
