Great for car-lovin' kids
This book is very colorful, and informative as well.The bright pictures and flaps entertain pre-readers, and there's enough text to amuse older kids (but not too much older).The only knock is that because the images are computer-generated, the human figures are a just a wee bit creepy looking.Picture the characters you might see in a computer game, but not the latest computer game.On the other hand, the cars and backgrounds are beautiful.

Christmas present
Great stocking stuffer for my NASCAR fan, full of Q & A's, quizes in all kinds of NASCAR info. It was a real hit.

Nascar Trivia
The book was for a friend.It came in "new" condition and is being enjoyed.

Excerpts from an awesome book . . .
Fact: NASCAR was originally formed as "The North American Society for Christian Auto Racers" by Sir Baden Powell.

Fact: Early NASCAR regulations prohibitted drivers from "picnicking and/or vibrating" when operating at speeds in excess of 170 MPH.

Fact: Since African American drivers were first permitted to participate in NASCAR events in 1993, Michael Jordan has secretly been racing under the name "Hermie Sadler."

Fact: All NASCAR drivers, pit crew technicians, and car owners are required to wear jock straps through the duration of NASCAR race events.

Fact: Bobby Labonte only sleeps every other week.

Fact: Shane Hmiel has been operating his car with his feet since the 2002 season when he lost his arms.

Fact: This book is awesome!

Good but...
This book was good and fun to do but it seemed that the questions they asked were more of from like 10 years ago. It's seems that if you were an older fan and been watching the sport really long you would be able to doit easy. I'm a Huge fan but I've only been a fan for about6 or 7 years andthey had alot of questions about Richard Petty and others like Cale and theallisons...But it's a good book!

Book Description
High speed performance car racing is America's fastest growing spectator sport. With its roots in the moonshine running days of the southeastern United States, stock car racing has become a national passion. Since 1990, attendance at NASCAR (National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing) events has tripled. Radio and television coverage has also increased dramatically, with CBS Sports using NASCAR as one of its four foundations (with college basketball, college football, and golf). Major corporations are lining up to sponsor NASCAR racing teams. The Inside Track to NASCAR is a photographic documentary of the highlights of a year on the NASCAR circuit. Photographer George Bennett followed the top drivers and their crews as they raced their way through the Winston Cup Series. From rural tracks like Bristol Raceway in Tennessee to legendary super speedways like Daytona, Bennett photographed not only the stars of the circuit--Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon, Ernie Irvan, and Dale Jarret--but also the behind-the-scenes participants--the crews, the officials, the fans, the infield groupies. With expert commentary by international Motor Sports Hall of Fame driver Benny Parsons, The Inside Track to NASCAR captures the whole exciting panorama of big-time stock car racing. ... Read more

Perfect Book For a Young NASCAR Fan
I had a hard time finding a good book about NASCAR for my son when he turned 5. He's a huge fan. This book is perfect.He's going on 7 now and still enjoys this book. It has lots of great photos of real cars and drivers - not generic painted race cars that a fan wouldn't recognize. It has photos of the pit crew action, the tracks, actual racing photos, the parts of the cars and lots of driver and car photos that your child will love. Some of the drivers and cars included are jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Jimmie Johnson, and Matt Kenseth. Great book for a 4 - 8 year old fan. The design is neat, too with the rubber handle with the NASCAR logo, and because it's a board book it can be carried around and looked at over and over again without getting damaged! Great gift for a true fan - your child won't be disappointed.

A great book for little boys who love Nascar!!!

Stock car winners and champions
This single computer CD, with 344 pages of text, is a valuable resource for the racing historian.It contains lists of race winners and series champions for more than 50 active and defunct international, national, and regional racing series. Naturally NASCAR is prominently featured, with results from 21 series such as Modified, Sportsman, Convertible, and Busch North in addition to the three current headline series.Not all NASCAR racing series are included; the old Short Track and short-lived Modified-Special series are among those omitted.Other sanctioning bodies whose winners and champions are tallied include the AAA (back to 1927), American-Canadian Tour, All-Pro, the All-Star League for eastern Modifieds, IMCA, and USAC.Quite a few dirt Late Model tours also have results listed.This CD is not for the casual fan as it contains no narrtive text or pictures, just lists of winners and champions. ...
