Wayne Rainey was certainly one of the greatest GP Racers to hit the scene in the late 80's-early 90's. With three consecutive world championships under his beltl, he had his 4th all but wrapped up when tragedy struck. Rainey's career was cut short and thus began a new chapter in this champion's life.

The book deals with his youth, and his early racing years on the dirt tracks of Southern California and later, the dirt tracks throughouit the US. His entry into GP racing makes for some of the most intriging and blatantly honest reading you will find. With Kenny Roberts as team manager, Wayne Rainey's career began to open up and the more you read the better this book gets.

This is simply the best book on the "inside" of a GP racer and the entire lifestyle that goes with it. (Ever wonder how "team-mates" get along when they BOTH want to win? ) Don't pass this one up. It deserves to be read.
