Review ------ "Quite a lot of book for very little money!" (Sabu Advani SpeedReaders 2017-05-16) "The book is a joy to read and hard to put down." (Mark Weisseg FastMuscleCar.com 2017-05-18) "Author John Close probably gives you 10,001 facts if you really want to get picky--which really moves the dollar-spent-per-fact ratio to a quite satisfactory place." (American Car Collector 2017-09-21) "Perfect for browsing, gift-giving and historical reference."

During that time, the sport has grown from a Southern, regional series to a global brand with its races telecast in more than 100 countries around the world. Author John Close details the earliest races of the 20th Century that laid the groundwork for the formation of NA through today’s modern events at mega-race stadiums across the country. Presented in an easy-to-read decade-by-decade "Factoid Format," this book allows you to spend a couple of minutes or hours at a time learning about the Cars (and Trucks), Personalities, Tracks, and Milestones of NA, America’s most popular and attended form of motorsports. Close, a longtime NA journalist, author, team member, and race-day Spotter, also includes dozens of rare and informative photos that take you from the famed "Beach Course" at Daytona to the high banks of today's NA tracks. A must read for any NA, Stock Car Racing, and American Motorsports fan, the book will provide hours of interesting entertainment as it uncovers rare information and statistical anomalies.
