Rosco McGlashan's unbelievable story is one of the best motorsports biographies I believe you will ever read. It has 390 action-packed pages with 160 incredible photos of Rosco's life, cars and racing career.

Rosco is an Australian drag racing and land speed legend. His early years were very tough. His V8 drag bike and jet dragsters take him to racing tracks all over Australia, the USA and New Zealand. These races lead to amazing, funny adventures and stories that will leave you wanting more.

Later, his motorsport and landspeed career takes him to other countries. Rosco gets kidnapped by the Russian Mafia whilst trying to buy two MIG jet fighter engines, and he fights his way out. He crashed a car at close to 600 mph (960 km/h) and clinically died on an operating table when another car he was racing went off a mountain road.

Rosco's driving ambition and refusal to give up see him turn his attention to breaking the world land speed record and wanting to be the fastest man on the planet. Rosco's story is not over yet, as he is putting the finishing touches to their latest record-breaker, the world's fastest and most powerful car, the Aussie Invader 5R. If you like reading motivational books with inspiring stories about chasing your dreams, this book is for you. Quitting is not in this man's motor racing DNA.
