- Summary
- "In Real Men Work in the Pits, Jeff Hammond recalls the moments of his life in racing: starting out working for the legendary Junior Johnson in the mid-70s and quickly becoming one of the best jackmen in the business; serving on all three of driver Cale Yarborough's championship seasons; and then taking over as crew chief during the glory days of legendary driver Darrell Waltrip." "Hammond and Waltrip teamed up to become one of the most successful crew chief/driver teams in history and their story has never fully been told until this book. Hammond's story is really the story of NASCAR itself, from its bootlegging beginnings to the multi-million dollar world of network television. Hammond has seen it all and isn't afraid to speak his mind when it comes to the key issues facing the sport."--Jacket.
