Great stories! I had a backlog of Autoweek mags to catch up on and just saw the short review in the June 15th edition. Look forward to reading the book.

My wife is making a library trip tomorrow. They just got it and are "checking it in". I'll be the first to check it out!

Hopefully you will find some things in the book about the ending that you did NOT know about. Let me know if you have can... I am very curious.

Awesome book... I caught your interview on Speed during the 24, found it on Amazon and got it within the week. Your writing puts you right in the minds of the characters and scenes. The jacket also mentions the movie rights were optioned... lets hope it can be made.

Yeah, I was going to ask about the movie plans. Can you say anything?

Here is the web site:

http://golikehellthebook.com/

There is an excerpt from the book that was also published in Playboy's May 2009 issue. A.J. is an editor of the magazine. That has to be an interesting story too! Who is more of a character - Carroll Shelby or Hugh Hefner?
