“The speed record category of car racing involves a mixture of concepts, the first and possibly the easiest to explain consists of the tireless human effort to break records and surpass previous achievements. The cult of the Goddess of Speed produced four decades of splendour (1898-1939) for this dramatic sport, which used to take place several times per year – depending on the number of contenders – with a very high rate of fatal accidents. This is the incredibly tough and competitive context in which our protagonist was born: “The Slug”.” – Luis Gutiérrez Espada, text featured in the CJ-50 box-set.
