Synopsis
A masterful and hilarious novel of open road sports car racing and falling in love with the boss's niece in 1950s AmericaIn his first novel, Burt Levy captures the atmosphere of a more innocent era in America, the early '50s -- a time when the horizon seemed open and anything was possible, when enthusiasts raced European sports cars in open-road races in Bridgehampton, Elkhart Lake, and Watkins Glen, races that crackled with excitement, fun, adventure, and an omnipresent danger.Levy tells the story of Buddy Palumbo -- a year out of high school and working as a mechanic at the Sinclair station in Passaic, New Jersey -- as he discovers the twin loves of his life: Miss Julie Finzio and sports car racing. Surrounded by a Dickensian cast of characters exuberant with life, Buddy is caught up in a series of adventures that rival those of Augie March -- as he learns what it means to be a man in an America that seems almost unrecognizable today.Fast-paced, funny, and utterly absorbing, Buddy Palumbo's story will enchant readers with a vision of being young in America's last age of innocence., In his first novel, Burt Levy captures the atmosphere of a more innocent era in America--the early fifties--a time when the horizon seemed open and anything was possible, when enthusiasts raced European sports cars in open-road races around Bridgehampton, Elkhart Lake, and Watkins Glen, races that crackled with excitement, fun, adventure, and an omnipresent danger.

    Easy read

    A good romp through the 1950’s era British car import, repair and racing scene. Light reading, a novel, for those interested in how the classic LBC’s (little British cars) came to be favored by sports car people. Not much technically, but a very entertaining read.

    Awesome book for the road racing enthusiast.

    This is a true story about an American mechanic that loved road racing in the 50’s. I can relate because I too was in love with sports cars and raced in the 70-80’s. I highly recommend this book to anyone that is interested in real road racing in the olden days!
