Reviews
Madigan's book not only details drag racing in California during '60s - from match racing to corporate sponsorship - it also tells the story of two great drag racers. - AutoTraderClassics.com
Even before you open Snake vs. Mongoose, you know you're in for something special and fun. A protective plastic dustjacket with full color decals of the snake and mongoose figures grabs your attention and keeps your 160 page book in pristine condition. Nine Chapters and eight informative sidebars from Marv Rifchin, Gene Adams, Bob Brandt, Pete Ward, Billy Bones Miller, Randy Fish, Bob Shaffer and Waterbed Fred Miller document the story. Snake vs. Mongoose is a joyful quarter mile trip down a fast memory lane. It rates four out of five lug nuts. - Gregg Leary, SPEEDTV.com Madigan's book not only details drag racing in California during '60s - from match racing to corporate sponsorship - it also tells the story of two great drag racers. - AutoTraderClassics.com
