About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Tyre destruction, power slides and continuous drooling

Chris Harris has driven more cars than most people could ever dream of. His vast knowledge is legendary. He calls it 'unhinged geekery'. But we call it infectious enthusiasm, adrenaline-fueled escapism and peerless journalistic rigour and integrity.

And then there are his famous skills at the wheel, from city cars to rally cars, F1 to vintage, not forgetting the Guinness World Record 3.4km sideways in an electric car.

And now for the first time, Harris is going all out with that unhinged geekery, and takes us down the road of his life-long adventure with the automobile - from the Scalextric track to the Nürburgring 24 Hour, via his own formative low-powered Somerset version of The Dukes of Hazard.

A highly individual, petrol-soaked life story that's all down to variable valve timings.

Brilliant book

Chris harris has always been one of my motoring heros. This book made me laugh out load and caused some tears at times I have to admit. If the motor car is for you a passion just like Chris, you have to listen to this book. Thank you for this piece Chris you are a complete lunatic and I love your journalism even more for that. Looking forward to many more youtube videos and a successful 2024 reboot. Cheers from Canada.

Highly Enjoyable

Honest telling of an unusual career path told in a highly enjoyable manner. After some aggravating listens (Elon Musk) this was the perfect mood lifter. Just hope we continue to see Chris’s unique takes on screen again whether on YouTube or TV
