The inside story of the BMC/BL Competition Department from 1955 to 1979 under the various management styles of Marcus Chambers, Stuart Turner, Peter Browning, Basil Wales, Richard Seth-Smith, Bill Price and John Davenport. From a works mechanic's point of view, Brian Moylan tells how competition cars were prepared, how rally support was organised and graphically describes what it was like to repair and service cars in difficult conditions, and against the clock.
The book also traces the evolution of BMC.BL rally cars from Big Healeys to TR7s.
A story of fun, hilarious incidents, hardship, winning, losing, real danger and, above all, the great adventure of being directly involved with world class rallying.
