+1 on "The Beast" - or, how the Captain had Ilmor build him a pushrod motor, from scratch, in 26 weeks, that had over 150 more hp than his competition.... only a handful of men knew all the details and they knew it was only going to be legal for one race. !

Also, read Laura Hildebrand's two books - Unbroken and Seabisquit, if not for the content, then for her commitment to the research that made the stories.
