Good CONDITION

$50.00

In 1988, Jaguar returned to the top of endurance racing, breaking Porsche’s seven-year winning streak at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The victory of the Silk Cut Jaguar XJR-9 marked a defining moment in the marque’s competition history and one of the great achievements of Tom Walkinshaw Racing.

Published in the same year, The Cat Pounces provides a contemporary account of Jaguar’s historic victory. Written by Michael Cotton and Ian Briggs, with a foreword by Tom Walkinshaw, the book documents the race through period photography, team-by-team analysis, technical specifications, circuit diagrams, and detailed competition results.

An excellent period reference for enthusiasts of Group C racing, Jaguar’s competition history, and the golden era of sports-prototype endurance racing.
