History of America's Greatest Stock Car Tracks From Daytona to the Brickyard

The history of stock car racing is filled with famous names like Allison, Waltrip, Yarborough, Petty, Earnhardt, and Gordon. Every Sunday during the NASCAR racing season, hundreds of thousands of racing fans pack a racing oval and cheer as their favorite car thunders around the track. Each track has its own personality, and a driver's knowledge of a track's nuances can mean the difference between victory and defeat. In this new book, we celebrate the history and lore of the tracks that serve as center stage for America's fastest growing sport, stock car racing. Each track currently in use on the NASCAR circuit, as well as some of the tracks no longer in use, are featured. Stories about the best races, the drivers' memories, unique construction designs, fan-friendly features and much more will be covered. Designed in a coffee-table, picture book format, this is a must-read for fans of stock car racing.Persinger, Kathy is the author of 'History of America's Greatest Stock Car Tracks From Daytona to the Brickyard' with ISBN 9781582614830 and ISBN 1582614830.
