Aside from the car stuff we're all into, what do you enjoy reading? My wife bought me Eric Clapton's new autobiography the other day and I have had a hard time putting it down as it's full of stuff from the '60's and '70's. Hard to believe the guy can remember anything with all that he "did."

at the mo I'm reading a book by a guy called Christopher Brookmyre but I really like the Joe R Lansdale http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_R_Lansdale stuff basically I like dark comedy and any book that makes me laugh out load is a winner as far as I'm concerned. other than that it Volksworld & ultra all the way. |

The last book I read was Into the Wild by John Krakauer. Great read that should awaken that vagabond spirit that is hidden in all of us. Then I heard the movie was coming out. Saw that, Awesome movie!! Good soundtrack too.

Just finished "in cold blood" from Truman Capote. Not a funny book, but a great one...

maybe this doesn't count, since it is car-related I have a copy of Porsche 917: The Ultimate Weapon , which is now out of print. It's a good book, technically and great photos. What makes my copy special to me is that I had it signed by many notable Porsche "guys"....Hanns Hermann, Derek Bell, Peter Falk, Jochen Mass, Wolfi Porsche, and Jurgen Barth. |

Good book, nice collection of signatures. If you haven't got it already you should keep an eye open for The Fabulous 917 (Peter Hinsdale). Says it's $5.95 on the back so second hand I should imagine you'd be able to pick it up for no more than a buck or so...   |
