"The World's Fastest Place" is Alexandra Lier's tribute to the
vanishing era of internal combustion and fossil fuel racing. These are
portraits of a generation of Speedseekers who cherish the smell of
gasoline and oil like the very air we breathe; people whose sense of
purpose is tied to the creation of record setting vehicles.
They
are powered by absolute devotion, friendship, and the ambition to
win—from the first turn of the wrench all the way to the starting line
at Bonneville.
Alexandra Lier's obsession with fast cars, customs,
racing and its attendant culture began back in 1999 when she first
visited Bonneville for Speedweek. Every year she travels to at least one
landspeed racing event, camera in hand, to document the people and the
cars. Back home in Hamburg she keeps the flame alive every time she
fires up her 1967, V-8 powered, Plymouth Barracuda.
