Description

The Nile on eBay FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Rainer W. Schlegelmilch. Porsche Racing Moments by Rainer W. Schlegelmilch It's not just flashing, snarling Porsche cars that racing photographer Rainer W. Schlegelmilch captures in these shots from 1963 to 1988 - though his zoom effect lifts them dramatically off the page. It's his story over the years, it's the reality of the track, drivers' conversations, mechanics' dirty hands. Feel the vibrations and smell the oil! FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In 1962, Rainer W. Schlegelmilch had his first experience of motorsport - the 1,000 km at the Nürburgring - and it was this that sparked a lifelong passion for both Porsche and racing that still burns today. Beginning in 1963, this wholly captivating collection of breathtaking shots transports you to another time and another world, taking you on a journey through the history of Porsche endurance racing, from Le Mans to Monza, via the Targa Florio and Spa-Francorchamps. And with his own words accompanying the pictures, Schlegelmilch shows and tells fascinating stories from track and trackside. Naturally, the cars are the heroes of this book - there's a genuine love of Porsche cars on these pages, a real admiration in pictures for each evolution of the legendary designs. From the purpose-built prototypes of the mid-60s - the 550, 718, RS and RSK models - followed by the more powerful 907 and 908, and through to arguably the most iconic racing car designs of all time, the 917, the 962 and of course the ageless 911, this is Schlegelmilch's pictorial love letter to his own "Porsche Racing Moments". He pays tribute to each of them with his unique zoom technique, that converts the movement and phenomenal speed of the racing cars into a totally absorbing and almost dizzying feast of depth and energy. Whether it's in black and white or colour, it's as if you can feel the rush of air on your face as the cars speed by. But while this book is perfect for those who live and breathe Porsche, there's more to it than the cars. From the shots of experienced teams to the drivers deep in conversation, from the greasy hands of the mechanics tinkering under the hood to the stained and cracked track, Schlegelmilch takes you to the real racing world, behind the glamour and into the dusty, oil-scented universe of motorsport.

  1. Good seller despite the negative feedback that I read. Communication has been excellent, seller has been responding professionally. The seller gave me a delivery date and the book arrived on time as promised. Book came in excellent mint condition. My only criticism would be that the seller should mention in the description that they do not keep the books in stock and have to order them in. This gives the buyer expectations that they have to wait a little longer to receive their book.

  2. (For Ebay) The quality value and Appearance and Condition was as I would expect with a new item. Well packed it arrived safely. Though there were difficulties with the collection point not generating a code as they ought to, but we did not know that was the cause the seller kept up good communications and was sympathetic to the situation. Though ebay perhaps info could have been more informative on the cause of the problem. All was sorted out in the event.

  3. Fantastic seller. Everything as described, book was in new condition, and was amazing value! Dispatch was really quick, and so was delivery, it arrived so much faster than I was expecting! Tracking was a bit broken, but not the seller's fault and I only mention in case others have similar issues. My package arrived no issues. I couldn't be happier as this book has proved very difficult to get my hands on at an affordable price, thank you so much!
