Retro Speedway's Tony McDonald says: "Richard Waller has put in a tremendous effort on the research side and done a great job to produce what is the definite guide to a memorable season. This fulfils the same role as the popular Daily Mirror-sponsored yearbooks by Peter Oakes that came out in printed form each year from 1977 until 1982 but the last one in that sequence covered events from the 1981 season. A complete record of the '82 campaign has never been produced - until now."
