Summary

To welcome NASCAR fans back to its airwaves in July 2007, ESPN airs a special, seven-hour programming extravaganza. The celebration kicks off with a five-month countdown of stock car racing's 100 most significant moments. For diehard fans of the nation's fastest growing sport, this book provides a sneak peak at the fireworks to come--a turbocharged, four-color, pedal-to-the-metal ride through sixty years of racetrack lore, featuring all of NASCAR's royal familes: the Pettys, the Yarboroughs, the Allisons, the Earnhardts, and, of course, the Frances. From the sport's birth in Daytona to the shocking crash that killed Dale Earnhardt, from the dirt track wizardry of Junior Johnson to the multi-billion dollar Nextel Cup showdowns, ESPN Ultimate NASCAR is a packed track of thrills, chills, spills and occasional fistfights--all fueled by high-octane photos and graphics.--From publisher description.
