Cart

This all-color, twenty-year retrospective of the series provides fans with a record of CART's trends and key developments, for example the era dominated by Penske Racing from 1979 to 1983, the arrival of "customer" cars and CheW engines, the increased involvement of sponsors, and the arrival of young drivers from other shores. Numerous sidebars profile leading drivers and team owners, and examine the technological evolution of the cars, addressing such matters as chassis construction, aerodynamics, and the individual demands imposed by various CART venues. A detailed appendix contains season-by-season results.
