This book is a nice coffee table book about H-D racing from 1934 to 1986. The author gives a great objective look at H-D's racing successes and failures and pulls no punches when discusses the advantages and disadvantages (and the reasons why) H-D had over the competitors. A great history book of flat track and road racing, not just for Harley lovers, with tons of great old pictures.

Alan Girdler has started from the beginning and lead me through the WRs, KRs, XLRs and into the XRs in a way that makes clear sense. I wouldn't have minded knowing how many of the given models were built, but given the way Girdler describes Harley record keeping, perhaps even they don't know! Anyway, if you are a dirttrack fan, you'll like this book.

Allen Girdler covers it all in this book. It has a lot of technical information as well as the history and background of flattrack racing. Lots of black and white photos. This is a must have if you are a fan of Harley Davidson racing and flattrack racing in general.
