Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Following the format and style of the series, there is a quirky edge in exploring the history of the sport, but the information will keep a reader turning fast laps throughout the 2008 season. Author Brian Tarcy takes the high-groove on the super-speedway with the triumphs & controversies, trivia and stats within the almanac-styled format.

By not taking things too seriously, Tarcy makes the 208 pages a fun ride to the checkered flag.
