Stock car racing history from 1950 through the early '70's with emphasis on the first two eras of factory involvement. Over 60 models of actual stock car racers show how these cars started out as basically stock vehicles and eventually changed to the purpose built race cars by the late '60's. There are three pictures of each car showing the whole vehicle, the engine, and the chassis. Besides NASCAR, there are vehicles that raced in AAA, USAC, ARCA, & IMCA. There are also two cars that raced in the 1952 Mexican Road Race, and two that raced in what was called the Permatex race at Daytona. Many of the models are cars raced by drivers before they became famous. Still other cars are those that were driven by men who never visited victory lane, but still raced to the best level that they and their car were capable of. There is a history of each car and also a narrative describing the model itself. This book pays tribute and recognizes the men that built and raced these cars.

In this history of the stock car racing circuit known as NASCAR, Daniel S. Pierce offers a revealing new look at the sport from its postwar beginnings on Daytona Beach and Piedmont dirt tracks through the early 1970s, when the sport spread beyond its southern roots and gained national recognition. Real NASCAR not only confirms the popular notion of NASCAR's origins in bootlegging, but also establishes beyond a doubt the close ties between organized racing and the illegal liquor industry, a story that readers will find both fascinating and controversial.
East Tennessee isn't typically mentioned among stock car racing's formative hotbeds. But the region from Bristol to Oneida and Chattanooga encapsulates a significant portion of the sport's history. From pioneers like Brownie King and Paul Lewis of Johnson City to former national champions Joe Lee Johnson of Chattanooga and L.D. Ottinger of Newport, East Tennessee has produced many of NASCAR's great drivers. The region is home to one of the world's largest sports stadiums in the Bristol Motor Speedway, but NASCAR also made regular visits to other area tracks. Whether the surface is red clay, asphalt or brushed concrete, East Tennessee still boasts some of the world's fastest, most competitive racing. Join author and racing insider David McGee as he presents a vast array of colorful characters whose passion fueled a sport that has gone from primitive to prime time.
