These Griffon-powered racers are the peak of liquid-cooled racing technology with the Mustang purpose-built fuselage coupled with the Griffon bringing out the maximum in horsepower with the smallest frontal area of any racing aircraft. A "must" for aviation buffs, Kevin Grantham and Nicholas Veronico's Griffon-Powered Mustangs presents the reader with a profusion of illustrations and photos covering every aspect of the aircraft, a world jet racing history, the griffon engine development, "Unlimited Class Racing Results", and more!
