SCCA Pro Racing Year In Review 2005



Motorsports photographer, John Thawley, announced today the release  
of his SCCA Pro Racing SPEED World Challenge Year in Review 2005  
book. The hardbound 54-page book will feature Thawley's photography  
and a race by race recap of the 2005 SCCA Pro Racing season.

The book can be purchased online at http://www.johnthawley.com and on  
TRACKBYTES at http://www.trackbytes.com.

"I like the change in direction, editorially speaking, for this  
year's book," expressed Thawley. "We saw such a fantastic year of  
racing in both divisions of SPEED World Challenge and I think this  
book really captures the excitement. The format includes a race by  
race recap of the 11 race schedule with coverage of both Touring Car  
and the GT divisions."

“The 2004 edition was great, but this year’s book promises to be  
exceptional and a must-have for any SPEED World Challenge fan,�?? SCCA  
Vice President of Marketing Garret Mudd said. “John’s excellent  
photography combined with his skills in layout and composition really  
shine in the Year In Review 2005.�??

"I’ve gone to extraordinary lengths regarding the production quality  
of this year's book," Thawley continued. "From the page design to the  
bindery, every detail has been revisited, changed and audited. We are  
using the finest Italian linens for our covers, smooth high-quality  
matte 100# cover stock for each and every page, and design elements  
typically reserved for only the finest art books. One of the most  
exciting features of the books is the full-bleed border-less images  
including several two-page spreads. The images truly remain faithful  
in reproduction to their photographic counterparts."

The SCCA Pro Racing SPEED World Challenge Year in Review 2005  
captures all the action, color and excitement of the 2005 SPEED World  
Challenge season. Thawley’s photographs will allow you to relive the  
season for many years to come.

The SCCA Pro SPEED World Challenge Year in Review 2005 can be  
purchased for $70 plus shipping and handling at http:// 
www.johnthawley.com and on TRACKBYTES at http://www.trackbytes.com.

The SCCA book coincides with Thawley’s American Le Mans Series book,
