About this title

Synopsis

Based on interviews with the drivers, car and track owners, promoters, crew chiefs, mechanics, and engine builders who make NASCAR possible, this insider's look at the nation's most popular auto race circuit covers the event from fuel to lug nuts. Original.

Reviews

Here McCullough collects 41 interviews with personalities involved in some way with NASCAR stock car racing; in each, he asked his interviewee (mostly drivers--the famous and not so famous) to recall his most memorable day in the sport. As is common with oral accounts, the quality of content is uneven; some accounts read very well, while others ramble or assume a knowledge of events that readers may not know. Collectively, however, the book offers a sense of the thrill of achievement--and some accounts evoke a particularly poignant moment, like Ned Jarrett's television broadcast of his son's victory in the Daytona 500. This is not a book for non-fans trying to understand the sport but for those who are already hooked; it's a book for people who are already fans--although disappointingly, a few notables, whose voices fans would want to hear (like Richard Petty), are absent from these pages. Not a necessary purchase, this book is appropriate for public libraries.
