(More customer reviews)If you have ever attended a dirt track stock car race, this book is for you. Although it is the story of the beginning of stock car racing at Beech Bend Park, one can almost hear the crash of metal on metal as these old 1930s stock cars bang doors going through the turns. The pictures are terrific, and I loved the introductory stories leading into each chapter. They are all true stories!

Bowling Green became the city of speed immediately after World War II as America began its love affair with the automobile. Stock car racing took the city by storm in its inaugural season of 1951, drawing crowds of up to 7,000 in a city of only 18,000. Soon thereafter, the city attracted the Chevrolet Corvette assembly plant followed by the National Corvette Museum. Images of Sports: Bowling Green Stock Car Racing documents the history of stock car racing in Bowling Green and the emergence of the raceway at Beech Bend Park.
