A Journey Around The Tracks Where Stock Cars Roar

They come in all shapes and sizes, lengths and distances. They come with varying banks and turns, curves and corners. They dot the nation, from New York to California, from the Southeast to the Midwest, in rural settings and suburban settings. "They" are racetracks, miles and miles of pavement, where thousands come each weekend to watch NASCAR racing, drivers pushing their cars to the edge with one goal in mind: to get to the finish line first. Join with The Sporting News on a journey to 26 past and present venues in The Racetracks Book. We'll take you to the track, around the track and through its history as we explore what makes racing a unique and special event at each and every one. We'll take you to the very roots of the sport, to Daytona, where racing celebrates its biggest event every year. We'll take you to the mountains of Northern California, a unique setting for road-course driving at Infineon. We'll take you to Bristol, Tenn., where short-track racing provides a whole new way to watch a race. We'll take you to Kansas and Chicago, where NASCAR racing is in its infancy, and we'll take you to Riverside and Nashville and North Wilkesboro, where cars once raced but do no longer. Through words, we'll tell you about these special places. Through pictures, we'll show you these special places. So fuel up, start your engines and take a trip you won't regret. Book jacket.
