I cant wait for this book.
I think Barry was 1st non Americam to win a USAC feature?

What are some of the American drivers who get a mention in the book?

What years/regions did he race in the US A.J?

Hope you get some photos sent your way A.J.

Can anyone suggest to A.J contact details of who might have photos?

Ted Tracy I think was here during that same time period, but I remember it would have been a white VW #5.
