Have you ever been so angry that you decided to spend a billion dollars just to humiliate your enemy?
In 1963, Henry Ford II ("The Deuce") tried to buy Ferrari. But the deal collapsed in a dusty room in Maranello when Enzo Ferrari insulted the American tycoon, calling him a second-rate imitation of his grandfather.
Enraged, Ford vowed revenge. He commanded his executives to build a car that could defeat Ferrari at the most grueling race on earth: The 24 Hours of Le Mans.
But a checkbook can’t buy victory. To win a war against the greatest racing empire in history, Ford needs soldiers.
Enter Carroll Shelby, a smooth-talking Texan visionary, and Ken Miles, a brilliant, volatile British mechanic who cares more about the perfect lap than corporate politics. Together, leading a ragtag team in a dusty California garage, they must battle the laws of physics, their own personal demons, and the crushing bureaucracy of the Ford Motor Company to build the ultimate weapon: the Ford GT40.
From the author of The Great Cola War and The Burger War comes a new deep dive into the most dangerous rivalry in sports history.
Based on incredible true events, Race of Titans: Ford vs Ferrari takes you inside the cockpit for a high-octane thrill ride through the golden age of racing. It is a story about the price of perfection, the bonds of friendship, and what happens when you push man and machine past the breaking point.
Inside, you will experience:
The Skunkworks: How a team of rebels built a 200-mph monster in 90 days.
The Sabotage: The internal war between the racers and the "Suits" who tried to control them.
The 7,000 RPM Scream: The engineering battles to keep an engine alive for 24 hours straight.
The Betrayal: The controversial "photo finish" order that robbed a legend of his crown.
Buckle up. History is about to redline.
Note: This book is a unique collaboration between author Anup Dilipkumar Kaldate and Google Gemini AI, blending human storytelling vision with advanced historical synthesis.
