• The first full history of Britain's only street circuit racing event,
the Birmingham Superprix
• Contains previously unpublished rare photographs, extensive race results and first-hand stories
• What really killed the Superprix?

• Could the race return?
Description

The story of Superprix, Birmingham’s very own road race – the subject of much controversy amongst residents of the city, politicians' and race fans alike.
Synopsis

The SuperPrix was a motor racing meeting held over August Bank Holiday on a street circuit in the centre of Birmingham, from 1986 to 1990. The principal event was the Formula 3000 Championship race, but support races included touring cars and sports cars. The idea of a motor race in the heart of England's nlotor city (to emulate the Monaco circuit) had been mooted as early as 1966. In the end, the city's arterial roads round the Bull Ring and the city centre provided one of the most exciting racing events ever staged in the UK.

In 1982 in an effort to showcase the home of Ford, G.M. and Chrysler as an international world-class city, community leaders lured the F1 circus into running a 2.5-mile course on the bumpy streets around Detroit's Renaissance Center. After seven years and winners John Watson, Michele Alboreto, Nelson Piquet, Keke Rosberg, and Ayrton Senna, the races left Detroit, never to return. Dramatic photos and insightful reminiscences from drivers, teams, and journalists capture the event's rich stories and distinctly American atmosphere.
