Blazing down a straightaway at 200-plus miles per hour and barreling into a turn at 160mph is a thrill like no other. A race car driver's senses are heightened as G-forces shove him back into his seat. He experiences the rush of controlling speed one moment and being completely at its mercy in the next. It's a double-edged sword of feeling as though he has mastered a 200 miles per hour machine while knowing he ultimately cannot. For the driver, racing is not merely a hobby, a job, or a passion. It is his life. And that life is full of learning. Life Lessons from Auto Racing captures stories of NASCAR's top drivers, owners, and crew members, and brings them to life in a way that is relevant to everyone. This one-of-a-kind book captures the stories of those at the track, and reveals the timeless truths that come through their life experiences. These men and women will inspire you to know that you, too, can learn from the crashes, flat tires, and empty gas tanks of life. Like those profiled, you will discover you can go beyond your own adversity and limitations and reach the ultimate winner's circle. Book jacket.
