About the Book

"I was born with the smell of methanol flowing through my veins." My life-long passion for motor sport A true "labour of love" by "petrolhead" craig lock Imagine by John Lennon Click on http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRhq-yO1KN8 "You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope that one day you'll join us... and the world exists as ONE!" * DEDICATION Dedicated to my dear sons Gareth and Sean who don't quite share my passion, nay obsession for/with motor racing and especially, Formula 1. After reading this "little" e-book, perhaps that lack of interest may one day change. For all the time I watched races instead of playing with you "guys" Watching children grow is like threatening the ivy to climb the garden wall. You wait for it to happen you hurry it along with love. But still you're disappointed at giving someone life enough to walk off on their own and not be carried in your arms. You never turn back - not once, and yet one day they've grown apart or taller It's all the same. Polly put the kettle on, we'll all have tea. Giving love to children has made us older overnight. -Rod McKune Also to all the great drivers I've seen over the past 50 years or so, both at the track, but far more on TV. Thanks guys (and also you few "gals") for the great pleasure you've given me. But this is also written for and dedicated to all you "fellow petrol-heads" throughout the world enjoy craig November 2013 "Our biggest battles, the greatest mountain we need to climb lies in our our own minds". It's not the highest mountain that we conquer, but ourselves, our own mentality. Overcoming perceived limits to reach (attain) the pinnacle of our own minds." -me So how, where did it all, the "journey", this life-long "obsession" begin... PPS To dearest dad, see the dream never died. It just took another course! As Woody Allen once said: "Life is what happens between making other plans!" "Sometimes you have to give up the life you had planned... in order to live the life you were meant to live." On the Podium after the Greatest Race...the Race of Life Click on http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMA1eYdLZLM&w Also see https: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhAghiP-5Fk and https: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQI5LtRtrb0 "When (or perhaps if ever) you arrive in heaven, let faith, hope and love be the wings that carried you there." - as adapted from the inspiring words of Jonathan Edwards, former minister in New England, Massachusetts "The Greatest Race: Living by (with) faith, hope and love is the highest podium any person can reach, God's podium that anyone stand on." - craig "Having pursued the goals, the dreams set before us and run the race with persistence and endurance, after giving it all. Then one day standing on the summit of life, breathing in the pure sweet oxygen of achievement, totally satisfied in running the greatest race, the race of life one that ANYONE can run and win." craig 11/11 from The Chequered Flag Available at http: //www.amazon.co.uk/THE-CHEQUERED-FLAG-GREATEST-ebook/dp/B0064R6D36 The various books that Craig "felt inspired to write" (including his various books on motor racing and Formula 1 ) are available at http: //www.amazon.com/-/e/B005GGMAW4 http: //www.amazon.com/s/ref=la_B005GGMAW4_sr?rh=i%3Abooks&field-author=Craig+Lock&sort=relevance&ie=UTF8&qid and http: //goo.gl/vTpjk
About the Author: Craig is a motor racing "fanatic" ( a petrol-head"), who has been studying the minds of the top racing drivers for most of his life. He believes in (and loves) helping others to find their passions and gifts... through encouraging people to reach out for, then accomplish their "wildest" dreams. Craig truly believes people can overcome obstacles, rise to any occasion, and accomplish their dreams, even 'Endless Possibilities' in life with enough FAITH, COMMITMENT and PERSISTENCE. "Our talents are our gifts from God... but what we do with our talents are our gifts TO God." "Only when you've been in the deepest valley can a person know what it's like to stand on the highest peak." - inspiring words from Richard Nixon, former United States President "Success is doing the best you can, in as many ways as you can. It is being just and honest and true - not in a few things, but in everything you do. Always look ahead and never look back, believe you can make all your dreams come true. Always believe in the best you can be and have faith in the things that you do. Forget about the mistakes you've made yesterday, the lessons you learn will prove valuable for today... Never give up and think that you're through... for there's always tomorrow and a chance to begin brand new. It is in dreaming the greatest dreams... and seeking the highest goals... that we build the brightest tomorrows. There is no limit to the goals you can attain, or the success you can achieve... your possibilities are as endless as your dreams. Whatever it is that you seek in life, whatever your dreams and what you hope to achieve, whatever you try to reach - whatever you plan... can all be yours - if you only believe you can!" - Larry S. Chengges "Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow." - Langston Hughes PPS: For dearest dad and 'pal', another 'champion' - see the dream never died... it's just taken another course! "Sometimes you have to give up the life you had planned... in order to live the life you were meant to live." "Aim at the stars, because you might even reach them." "Together, one mind, one life at a time, let's see how many people we can impact, encourage, empower, uplift and perhaps even inspire to reach their fullest potentials...and so become 'ever more champions of life'." Craig's various books are available at http: //www.amazon.com/-/e/B005GGMAW4
