| Publisher Description: "I was born with the smell of methanol flowing through my veins." My life-long passion for motor sport A true "labour of love" by "petrolhead" craig lock Imagine by John Lennon Click on http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRhq-yO1KN8 "You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope that one day you'll join us... and the world exists as ONE " * DEDICATION Dedicated to my dear sons Gareth and Sean who don't quite share my passion, nay obsession for/with motor racing and especially, Formula 1. After reading this "little" e-book, perhaps that lack of interest may one day change. For all the time I watched races instead of playing with you "guys" Watching children grow is like threatening the ivy to climb the garden wall. You wait for it to happen you hurry it along with love. But still you're disappointed at giving someone life enough to walk off on their own and not be carried in your arms. You never turn back - not once, and yet one day they've grown apart or taller It's all the same. Polly put the kettle on, we'll all have tea. Giving love to children has made us older overnight. -Rod McKune Also to all the great drivers I've seen over the past 50 years or so, both at the track, but far more on TV. Thanks guys (and also you few "gals") for the great pleasure you've given me. But this is also written for and dedicated to all you "fellow petrol-heads" throughout the world enjoy craig November 2013 "Our biggest battles, the greatest mountain we need to climb lies in our our own minds". It's not the highest mountain that we conquer, but ourselves, our own mentality. Overcoming perceived limits to reach (attain) the pinnacle of our own minds." -me So how, where did it all, the "journey", this life-long "obsession" begin... PPS To dearest dad, see the dream never died. It just took another course As Woody Allen once said: "Life is what happens between making other plans " "Sometimes you have to give up the life you had planned... in order to live the life you were meant to live."

Then one day standing on the summit of life, breathing in the pure sweet oxygen of achievement, totally satisfied in running the greatest race, the race of life one that ANYONE can run and win." craig 11/11 from The Chequered Flag Available at http: //www.amazon.co.uk/THE-CHEQUERED-FLAG-GREATEST-ebook/dp/B0064R6D36 The various books that Craig "felt inspired to write" (including his various books on motor racing and Formula 1 ) are available at http: //www.amazon.com/-/e/B005GGMAW4 http: //www.amazon.com/s/ref=la_B005GGMAW4_sr?rh=i%3Abooks&field-author=Craig+Lock&sort=relevance&ie=UTF8&qid and http: //goo.gl/vTpjk |
