About the Book

Travis Richard Davis is steel by definition. He can steel his resolve to succeed or wear it as an armor of determination. Women and life can melt his heart with passion or fire it with fury. To Travis, racing is like steel turning to liquid by furnace heat before it is poured and forged into reality. Travis is a semi-professional drag racer and a hard-working master heavy equipment mechanic who also has a passion for innovation and acceleration. This guy lives, sleeps, eats, and dreams of innovative ways to go faster. During his pursuit to campaign a record-holding twin-turbo Drag Race Altered, he unexpectedly meets the love of his life. Based on real and imagined events that happened in the late 80s when turbocharging in drag racing was scoffed at, Love, Lust, and Combustion explores the turbocharged trials and tribulations of Travis Richard Davis and how a small team of motivated, smart, and hardworking individuals focus on a common goal.


This book describes in detail, how to engineer and assemble a world class drag racing engine. It also is a about a lusty love between two dedicated people pursing a common goal. It has a bit of spice, as most passionate relationships do. The author considers it a Racing Romance Novel from a male perspective. If you like shows like, Street Outlaws, or No Pre Kings, this book might be an interesting to read. It is not only about the cars, but about the people that build and race them. The book gives a deep look into the world of Semi Professional Drag Racing on sanctioned tracks. It is filled with fast cars and heated racing.


The Love story is unique in that all though there is an age gap, the couple has much in common and both have a real fire for Drag Racing. There is a bit of beautify and the beast in the story as well. The book has a unique way of describing the very passionate events in that many of the body parts involved us automotive parts as reference. Piston and Rods are plunged into well lubricated cylinders.

Only in the last five years has the niche community of Street and Drag racing come to light. The innovative Discovery Channel took a chance and created a pilot show about some Street Racers in Oklahoma City. Now there are 14 Seasons and over 100 episodes! There is also multiple spin off shows. A quick word search on Street Outlaws in Google or better yet YouTube will yield hours of content.

There was some interest in using this book for a movie or better yet mini-series. I will attach a "Project Road Map" that was done by the Producer, Garrick Dion though a Voyage Company.
