Although primarily written for a younger audience, motor racing fans shouldn't be put off - this new book from Matheson is remarkably detailed and well illustrated throughout. Matheson - currently an assistant editor and sports editor at the Sunday News – is probably better known to rugby enthusiasts for his books on Stacey Jones and Christian Cullen, but here he demonstrates that he also has a good grasp of motor sport. Dixon's racing career is covered in good detail from his early days competing in local and Australian race tracks - there are some great shots of Scott when he was a pudgy little kid -to his signing with the Indy Lights series in 1999 and, of course, concluding with his historic win at Indianapolis. Although this is not an official biography, Matheson has talked to many of the people closest to Dixon – including his family. All of which helps the author produce a well-rounded profile of this young motor sport hero. And, at $39.99, this is a genuine bargain.
