Looking to spend some newly acquired Waterstones vouchers and was thinking of getting How to Build Motorcycle-engined Racing Cars. Is this any good? Is it in depth and practical or more pretty pictures and ideas? Any views greatly received. Thanks.

It's more the latter to be honest....just a good source of pics and ideas...still worth having though IMO.

It's good to have, but is very much in the pretty pictures and good ideas bracket.

I'd recommend one of the Allan Staniforth books are a better buy if you don't already have them.

Thats a shame I was hoping more practical. Might still be tempted. Got all the other usual suspects so was looking for something similar.

If you've got all the usual shelf full of books, then it would probably be worth having.

TBH, I was a little disappointed by this book! Detailed in areas I didn't want and missing detail in areas I thought would have been obvious to cover in more depth!

Oh well I'll give it a go. Only another 7000 titles to search.

Couldn't resist how to build a cheap sports car and build your own electric motorcycle
