This is the ultimate resource for the McLaren-Honda team's car for its best season of the Turbo Era, the MP 4/4. As an engineer and gearhead, I was very impressed to see full dynographs with HP and torque vs rpm and fuel consumption for the '87 car vs '88, when new restrictions had choked the max race boost from 4.0 bar (1,010 HP) down to only 2.5 bar (685 HP), forcing the team to make the best of other attributes to get ahead. And they did just that, with utter dominance of the '88 season of the like Ron Dennis must dream about at night whilst tossing and turning. Ian's impressive attention to detail is on display throughout. He starts with a thorough discussion of the background and rapid evolution of the era, then very technical details of the cars themselves, and finally a race diary of the mythical '88 season.
