Focus of the Book: Graphical Design of Racing Cars mainly between 1960 and 1990.

Most people don’t know that racing cars from the likes of Porsche and Ferrari were given their looks not by marketing strategists or designers, but by chance. Go Faster is a collection of over one hundred examples of racecar design that documents the carefree anarchy in which they were created. In the book, each colorful racing car is featured next to a blank, white model. Thanks to this juxtaposition, “Go Faster” shows its readers exactly how graphics modulate the look of the vehicle.

I personally liked the idea a lot of producing a book about the liveries only. There is one other book about the Porsche 917 which does a similar thing but not exclusively like “Go Faster”.
The only thing I have really missed in the book is the availability of more infos about the livery designers themselves. It would have been great to have a list at the end of the book providing at least the name of the graphical artist having created a livery for a specific car.
