Author Description

Dean Rinaldi makes his non-fiction debut with this hard-hitting historical account of 70's illegal street racing. The Harris's shoots down the myths and exposes the lengths the fearsome family would go to achieve their ambitions and become one of Britain's most formidable, respected and intimidating families. Ron Snr, Jeff & Andy Harris are intelligent, witty, charismatic straight-talkers who live by a strict code of conduct. Their names are synonymous with highly-modified street cars, violence and illegal street racing. As they stamped down hard and enforced the family's reputation as No 1 on Britain's streets, they attracted bloody, violent clashes with their rivals and the police. The Harris philosophy is simple: 'If it's racing on the streets or a tear up on the cobbles, then losing just aint an option.'
