If you’ve been waiting to preorder your copy, don’t wait any longer. If you order before or on May 15, we can still get your name into the book’s acknowledgments page as a supporter of this remarkable book.

You won’t be sorry–this hardcover book has expanded to 272 pages but our preorder price has not changed. It’s $75 including US shipping for the standard version, or $250 for a limited-edition slipcased version that includes a limited edition print produced by Peter himself–which by itself is worth the price.

Go to the product page today and select which version you want. Do it today!

On the bright side, stay tuned to Speedhunters and Stance & Speed for information on more collaborations in the near future!

This 400-page softcover book  chronicles the entirety of 2011 through the lenses of Speedhunters’ worldwide crew of photographers. The result is an unparalleled photographic document of global car culture.

The book, with its hardcover slipcase, weighs nearly 6 1/2 pounds. Each book is hand-numbered, with a limited production of only 1,500 units. Within weeks of its release,  Speedhunters Yearbook: Volume One has sold out at its main retail outlets. Stance & Speed, the publisher of this unique book, has the last copies. Act now or you will miss out!

If you happened to have been in Utah in August during Speedweek, you may have seen a bearded man in a hat, jeans, and boots, taking pictures at every  possible opportunity. That man is Peter Vincent; he’s been traveling to the Bonneville Salt Flats on photographic missions for more than 20 years.

If you did bump into Peter, he might have handed you a postcard (looking a lot like the image at the top of this post) advertising the upcoming book that we are publishing. The back side of that postcard shows a mockup of the book’s cover, as well as the slipcased limited edition version.

Peter is flying out to Minnesota next weekend so that he, designer John Sticha, and I can put the finishing touches on the layout for the book. We’re all extremely excited about the pages we’ve been putting together. The presentation of Peter’s photographs in this large-format book is going to be something to see and treasure.

Follow Stance & Speed on Facebook and we’ll be sure to post some snapshots as we’re working. And, of course, don’t forget to pre-order your copy of the book, which is scheduled to arrive early in 2013.

Charlie will have books for sale and signing, along with noted Ford drag racers Al Joniec, Ed Terry, John Healey, Earl Wade, Bill Holbrook, Mike Gray, and Hubert Platt. Want to meet some of your Ford drag racing heroes? Head over to Building G and the adjacent lot, which is the old tractor dealership adjacent to Gate 1.

It will take some time to get all of the author bios and book information in place here; your patience is appreciated. In the meantime, you can order any of our books here, with a simplified checkout procedure that I think you’ll like.
