Racing Roadsters
charts the racing exploits of the Singer Roadster in North America
in the mid '50's. Thoroughly researched, written and printed by
Ottawa resident and Singer Owner, Peter Mckercher, this book reveals
that the SM 1500 C was a competitive racing car particularly when
competing against MGs of the era.

Singer's unhelpful marketing strategy, the lack of factory and dealer
support, the enthusiastic drivers and their technical developments
and the circuits that were in use. 51 pages and plenty of contemporary
photographs document this little known piece of Singer history.
£16 plus
postage & packing.
