On the Limit — Anthony Hampshire

Canadian Children's Book Centre Our Choice, 2007

There was no time to think about what to do, only to react. I braked hard, eased the Swift right, flicked left to avoid a piece of wing, then right again to miss the spinning black car. I found myself through the accident, out of the corner, and accelerating hard up to turn four.

Following the second-place finish in Milwaukee, Eddie Stewart and his race team are filled with confidence. The future looks bright as they head for Toronto and their next race. But their chief rival, Raul DaSilva, is determined to win at all costs - even if it means vandalizing Eddie's car. Now Eddie and his crew will have to test the limits of their talent and teamwork to make it to the podium.
