OMG! This has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of! That's absolutely hilarious! I'm assuming that it only comes in large print with lots of pictures.
 Somthing different for the avid racing fan December 25, 2007
I got this for my husband who is a Nascar junkie. He spent most of Christmas day reading it so I have to assume he is enjoying it.
Only bummer is the price when down after I bought it.

Great book and very uplifting. I purchased 15 copies for my group because I was interested in the Pit Crew stories. They are very motivational.
A good book, but something was missing July 23, 2007
If you want to read heart-warming stories about the greatest sport ever, then get this book. There are stories in there by drivers like Ned Jarrett and Richard Petty that are really cool. For some reason however, I was expecting more from this book. Don't get me wrong, this is a great book and you should certainly get it, but for some reason I was expecting something extra. A good overall book however. Get it.

This book is a non-stop, top-speed, edge of your seat, adrenaline rush of grieving widows, disfiguring injuries, and terminal illness. When my eldest boy R.J. bought me this book for America Day (a MacAllister family holiday tradition) I nearly kicked his teeth in. But lucky for R.J., september 11th fell on a sunday this year, so didn't have my steel-toes on, just my regular soft-toed church boots. Those boots are soft as an angels cheek, and as i proved last mothers day, couldn't knock a baby tooth from a infants mouth. Needless to say, when i saw that book i assumed my boy was callin me a queer, and challengin' my claim as man of the house, much like his older brother Cody had done three years prior. Turns out i was mistaken, and after i got to pokin' around in this book i discovered a treasure trove of high-octane life lessons from Dale Jarret, Monte Dutton, and countless other heros of the golden loop. If i had known what a joy this book would be it could have saved me a $300 hospital bill, and R.J. about 20 pints of blood. It was Bobby Labontes tale of overcoming adversity that inspired me to sue the WWF for their role in puttin my boy Cody in a wheelchair, via Rick Flair's instructional pamphlet, "How to Apply a Figure-Four Leglock, the Rick Flair way". That pamphlet is a menace that should be stricken from the Holcombe County public library. Had i not been reading it that fateful day when Cody decided he was a bigger man than me, he might still be walking today. All in all i give this book 8 thumbs up, 10 American Flags, and 4 hell yeahs!
