Best book on NASCAR I've read

I've read a lot of books on NASCAR, and this is the one I'd recommend to anyone to whom I wanted to communicate my love of the sport. Wright's perspective on NASCAR is unlike any other -he is erudite and witty and down-to-earth and communicates a true connoisseur's perspective. Highly recommended.

Absolutely fascinating!

Whether you're a stock car fan or not, this is fascinating and hilarious. What a sport, what a history, what a culture. NASCAR is something different. Couldn't possibly have learned or enjoyed more.

Review by a non-NASCAR reader

I had no knowledge or affinity towards NASCAR racing before reading this book. The author makes the subject interesting to those of us who don't know the drivers, the car racing teams, the tracks or anything else about NASCAR. It is a funny and at times hilarious read of one man's love with racing and the Winston Cup. While not at all "high browed", one begins to understand the sociological context of this fast growing sport. I recommend this book the fan, nonfan and the curious.

A GREAT book for any NASCAR race-fan!

This book was a nice change from the typical "behind the scenes" books you usually find about Nascar. The author tells it like it is from a fan's point of view. He describes his trips to several different NASCAR events. His stories are amusing, and entertaining, and his information is accurate. I used this book to show a friend of mine why I go to so many races and why I am such a big NASCAR fan. Next thing you know, she was begging me to take her to Rockingham,NC. She's a NASCAR fan now too, so I guess that says something for the book. I highly recommend it to any true NASCAR fan or anyone who doesn't understand why NASCAR is America's fastest growing sport. Read "Fixin' to git" and just maybe you'll become a fan too......
