Good Overview of an Incredible LifeBy Daniel ThorpeHe may not have planned his career as such, Tony Southgate ended up as a "hired gun" designer, working (briefly) for almost every team under the sun: BRM, Lotus, AAR, Arrows... - even for a sports car project! This is a relatively slender volume to cover such a long and varied career, so don't expect a detailed design history of his various cars, although the main features that made each successful - or not! - are mentioned. Instead, what you get here is an amazing collection of anecdotes with Tony's observations and thumbnail sketches covering almost all the great personalities of motor racing's golden age. It would be great to have more detail in some of the chapters, but this is still a pretty good overview of an amazing time for the sport.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Essential ReadingBy Richard GollinWhat a career ;involved with all our favourite racing cars from Lola, Brabham, BRM, Eagle and Jaguar, Mr Southgate has written a gentle evocative picture of the racing car world from its heyday of big crowds for all types of racing to Bernie throttling it all for F1. Highly enjoyable.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great designer shares his processBy George LevyThe title pretty much defines whether you'll be interested or not, but Tony does a beautiful job of taking you into the drawing board environment for some of the most important race car designs in history and helping you understand the many unseen reasons why some ideas succeed better than others.

The author's 38-year career as a racecar designer brought him into contact with many of the most colorful personalities in the sport. He was solely responsible for almost 50 cars, contributed to the design of a further 25, and was able to claim the 'triple crown' of major victories: his cars won the , the , and the Formula 1 . He writes about the challenges and stresses of designing and developing safe and race- winning cars, of periods of sadness after fatal accidents, and constantly pushing the boundaries of design technology. The wealth of color and black-and-white pictures and drawings are testament to the talent and versatility of this brilliantly successful designer.
