Autorenporträt
"Landspeed" Louise Ann Noeth is a lady raconteur of stunning speed stories. She raced jet dragsters, helped TEAMVesco capture the current 458-mile-per-hour world wheel-driven record, and guided the Breedlove and Fossett teams. Touchstones throughout motorsports are her heralded historical tome Bonneville Salt Flats and her Fuel For Thought column. She is an extreme speed consultant for film and television. Alex Xydias, an innovator who, with his partner Dean Batchelor, set the hot rod world afire in 1949 obliterating speed records, sets the stage for Noeth's pictorial romp through salty speed deeds.
