To be the fastest car in the world--to go over 400mph--Woody, with the help of his mechanic, Worm McNess, will need to build a special Black Tiger that uses four engines. And to race it, Woody will need four times the amount of courage.BLACK TIGER AT INDIANAPOLIS (Book 5)When Indy 500 champion Pete Elsworth wins a road race and declares that road race drivers are inferior to Indy drivers, Woody Hartford is forced to step up and defend his colleagues.

It's Rocky on the racetrack.A CAR CALLED CAMELLIA (Book 6)Camellia's steam-powered turbine engine--noiseless, oil-less, and practically gasless--would seem to be the cure for pollution, but like all revolutions it doesn't happen overnight. Worm McNess (the implacable Scotsman employed by Black Tiger as genius mechanic/designer) invents it. Black Tiger won't have it. Ace-driver Woody Hartford won't believe it. The Indy 500 committee almost bars it. And the competing entries will try anything to stop it.You'll hold your breath as you read about this water-powered car--named after a flower--that has to go up against the gas-guzzlers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
