About

Most people have a hobby of some sort golf, hiking, reading, bridge, bird watching, quilting, cooking, archeology, and yes, even writing. In our society, everyone is free to pursue his or her own interest and there is a wide range to choose from. Racing is of huge interest to millions of people, and racing has been around for ages. Didn’t they have camel races in the desert years ago? Most people today are simply viewers. However, a number can’t resist becoming a participant, whether it is a swimmer, marathon runner, or boat, motorcycle or auto driver. Then there are the BMX racing bikes for kids. The Daytona Beach International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, the third largest single lit outdoor sport facility, seats nearly 168,000 for its NASCAR races and is usually sold out. A countless number of additional fans would not miss the NASCAR races on television. This book raises the age-old question of why a man, or occasionally a woman, would risk his health, his financial wherewithal and much more, possibly even his life, to become a racer.
