Thrilling Sports Cars

by Karen Latchana Kenney

Overview

Since cars started rolling off assembly lines in the early 1900s, there have been some people who wanted more than just ordinary cars. They wanted more power, more speed, and more style. Enter the sports car. Although sports cars grew out of racing, today sports cars are seen cruising the streets as well as mastering the tracks. Open readers’ eyes to the sports car world as they discover the defining models of sports car history and how today’s manufacturers continue to push the limits of performance. Charts, fact boxes, and high-impact photos will keep readers speeding through the pages!
