Review:

How many Winston Cups did Richard Petty win? What's the fastest speed ever recorded at a NASCAR track? If you're a self-respecting stock car racing fan, you ought to be offended by such rookie questions. But how many Winston Cup points did Dale Earnhardt win in 1986? Who won the first race at Daytona International Speedway (hint: it wasn't Lee Petty; the first race was run by convertibles two days before Petty won the 500)? The Stock Car Racing Encyclopedia includes complete statistics for all the drivers, owners, races, and tracks from 1949 through the 1996 season as well as a comprehensive listing of records and year-by-year stats. This exhaustive resource is essential for fans of stock car racing.
