Review of "The Wildest Ride: A History of NASCAR" by Joe Menzer
NASCAR is the abbreviation for the National Association of Stock Car Racing. Stock car racing has been around for over 80 plus years. Joe Menzer, a famous sports writer for over 33 years, take the reader for a "wild ride" into the history of the "good old boys'" sport of stock car racing. The Wildest Ride, tells the long history of NASCAR through numerous interviews and exciting photos. The nice thing about "The Wildest Ride" does not require the reader to wear a seatbelt to enjoy this outstanding book.
NASCAR started out as a bunch of good old boys racing the family car. As interest in the sport of stock car racing began to grow it became very competitive and participants attempted to figure out a way how to organize it. Then it started to grow and the sponsors started to notice the sport and started to sell the racers the products.
I really loved the book because i'm a true NASCAR fan myself. There is nothing really to dislike of the book except for some of the bad language in some the titles of the chapters. I would recommend this book to anyone that is a true NASCAR fan and gearheads alike.
