Mark J ReadI have wanted to write this book for so long because I felt this story was just too incredible not to be told. My book, ROSCO: The Fastest Aussie on Earth, is about my friend Rosco McGlashan. He is an Australian drag racing champion, land speed recor holder, and motor racing legend. Although I was new to writing memoirs, being 65 years of age has its advantages, and my writing seemed to flow once I started. From the book reviews, I feel proud to have succeeded in my task of telling this remarkable story in a way that resonates with the readers. I have always been fascinated with mechanical problems, and land speed records are about solving problems. I have been working with Rosco to build the world's fastest car (Aussie Invader 5R), in which Rosco and the Aussie Invader team hope to break the world land speed record and achieve a 1,000 mph (1,600 km/h). The land speed car build and the work I do to see this record broken are a labour of love. I have worked on the Aussie Invader project for 15 years with Rosco and some of the world's best mechanics, engineers, and rocket scientists, and we all give our time and expertise for free. The book's goal is to raise awareness of our land speed record project, with the proceeds going towards supporting it.Mark J ReadAuthor and proud member of the Aussie Invader team.P.S.
