The list of references on this page is only partial. You can find literally thousands of books on the various book sellers' websites such as Amazon or Chapters. Where possible I've listed call numbers for the materials so that you can go to the library fully prepared to start your research.
Remember, if your local library doesn't carry one of the books listed ask at the information desk for an interlibrary loan. This is usually a free or low cost alternative to purchasing the books you want to use for your research.
Every driver, team and series has a website, search them out, get to know the ins and outs of the sport you are starting to discover.
Welcome to the world of Auto Racing. It's a heck of a ride, so sit back, hold on tight and watch the cars go by at over 180 Miles per hour.
