history: I really like Auto racing. In fact I'm watching the British Grand Prix right now! There was races for automobiles as soon as they recorded as early as 1867. It sure has come a long way. This formula 1 race right now is downright bonkers. By the 30's there had been special racing cars created. Was that influenced by the advent of the Ford v8?
