This biography of Bill Sadler tells the story of an innovator who
set the racing world astir with his boldly inventive cars. His
original creations — including the Sadler Formula Libre and Mark
V — brought him racing victories at tracks such as Watkins Glen
and the Brighton Speed Trials throughout the 1950s and early
’60s.
Sadler’s career took him from his first shop in Hamilton, Ontario,
to the notorious Nevada government facility known as Area
51, where he worked on prototype aircraft and other classified
projects during his decades-long hiatus from the racing world.
Written with the full cooperation of Bill Sadler before he passed
away in early 2022, Fast, Faster, Fastest contains never-before-
seen photographs and rarely-heard stories from a brilliant
Bill Sadler laying out the design of his first car in chalk on the floor of his
garage. (Sadler Family Collection)
