ABSTRACT:

“I am a car nut,” confesses David E. Davis, Jr., the author of “Thus, Spake David E.” – and it’s more a point of pride than any confession of weakness.

Indeed, there’s nothing like a mean-looking Ferrari 275/LM to get Davis’ pulse and prose racing. That, and doing 80 mph on rural Interstate 80 while eating an Egg McMuffin, and innovation he ranks right up there with the Wright Brothers’ airplane……

Shot through it all is a thirst for life as powerful as the engine of the Lancia Aurelia coupe of his dreams.

Buckle your seatbelts: You’re in for a helluva ride.
