The World’s Number One, Flat-Out, All-Time Great Stock Car Racing Book Down Home Press “To read this book is to live in the aura of the stock car racing circuit. Jerry Bledsoe tells it like it is, no holds or language barred. You will have a grandstand seat with an intimate view of the drivers, great and small, and their colorful associates.” “Easily the best handling of the subject of stock car racing in America. . . . One of those few books you’re going to want to pull out about once a year and read again. Or pass on to a friend. Or keep in the glove compartment of your car like a road map of your memories.” “The finest book on any kind of motor racing.” “Bledsoe’s look at the four-wheeled South is friendly but unsentimental, and his book is a splendid piece of reporting.” “Jerry Bledsoe captures what the sport is all about—people: down-to-earth, straight-forward, God-fearing, dirty-nailed people, winning, losing, fighting, loving, and dying. But his book is more than a good-ol’-boy version of a Harold Robbins novel. It’s a concise, complete history of stock car racing.” “Flat out throbs with fascinating characters.”
