Editorial Review Product Description These were the challenges that faced Miller and his team at Penske Racing South.And Ford Taurus in NASCAR is the thrilling story behind the response to those challenges.At the time, Miller was going about his daily business of fielding one of Ford's most competitive Thunderbirds for driver Rusty Wallace, but soon Miller had sketched his idea of the Taurus race car that Ford would unveil to other teams and NASCAR's technical directors in 107 days. The project moved quickly from concept to 40-percent models for wind tunnel testing to the first full-sized Taurus, which was revealed to the public on July 30, 1997.But the work had just begun. The new Taurus wasn't tested on a track until December 5, 1997--just two months before the car's racing debut.Still, it won its first race on February 8, 1998, when Wallace triumphed in the Bud Shootout at Daytona International Speedway. The future for Ford Racing was secured. Throughout 1998 and 1999 the success of the Taurus continued.And now, as the 2000 season approaches, Ford prepares its latest entry--the Taurus 2K.From vision to victory lane, Ford Racing continues its winning tradition and Ford Taurus in NASCARcelebrates the excitement of its success. Ford has been part of NASCAR racing since day one.Jim Roper drove to victory, at NASCAR's inaugural Strictly Stock Series race, later the NASCAR Winston Cup Series, in a Lincoln on June 19, 1949.And throughout the history of NASCAR, the names of Ford drivers have resembled a Who's Who of the NASCAR Winston Cup Series--Ned and Dale Jarrett, Bobby and Davey Allison, David Pearson, Bill Elliott, Mark Martin, Fred Lorenzen, Junior Johnson, Fireball Roberts, Rusty Wallace, and Ricky Rudd.Even Richard Petty won races in Fords.So, too, did Dale Earnhardt.Roper's Lincoln started a tradition that runs through the Taurus that carries Ford Racing forward into the twenty-first century. |

Editorial Review Product Description Petty, Earnhardt, Allison, Baker, Jarrett: The names read like a starting grid of NASCAR's rich history. From its early dirt-track days to the swift speedway battles of the present, NASCAR has continued a tradition of excellence and competition passed down from father to son, and from older brother to younger. The desire of adoring kids to follow the path to family success--all to the delight of fans across America--remains at the core of NASCAR Winston Cup Series action and forms the thrilling landscape of NASCAR Generations. The Legacy of Family in NASCAR Racing. Told through the eyes of the successful fathers, sons, and brothers who have made up the fraternity of racing during NASCAR's fifty-plus years, NASCAR Generations celebrates the winningest personal and professional moments, as well as the most poignant ones, experienced by the sport's beloved families. There's Dale Earnhardt reflecting on the only race he ran with his dad, Ralph, a dirt-track legend, and the joys of embracing Dale Jr. in victory lane. Two-time series champion turned announcer Ned Jarrett happily admits that no moment in his storied career could ever rival the opportunity to make the spirited call for his son Dale's first Daytona 500 win and to follow Dale's quest for the 1999 NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship. Stock car legend Bobby Allison speaks candidly about the glory days of racing against his brother and Alabama Gang partner, Donnie, as well as the honor of driving door to door with "the finest young man in racing," his son, Davey. Each of NASCAR's greatest family stars has a rich history to share, and each tells it here in NASCAR Generations. Here also are the competitive siblings who somehow manage to keep the family peace at close to two hundred miles per hour every weekend. In 1999, Jeff and Ward Burton forged the sport's most curious one-two punch, finishing in that order for three races (much to Ward's chagrin). Bill Elliott and his brother Dan look back to the incredible effort they and their brother Ernie put into Bill's pressure-filled, unlikely drive for the first-ever Winston Million in 1985. And then there's the 1996 finale in Atlanta, when Bobby Labonte won the race and big brother Terry won the NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship, leading to a shared victory lap for the ages. In interviews with many members of the NASCAR fraternity, longtime magazine journalist Robert Edelstein gets to the heart of NASCAR's family matters, especially in recounting the sport's two longest-running story lines. For the France family, who started the sport, the qualities that made Big Bill France and his wife, Anne, such a successful team inspired their sons, Bill Jr. (who continues at NASCAR's helm) and Jim, as well as the next generation of France family members, to help shape NASCAR in the new millennium. And for the Pettys, the only family in professional sports that has fielded four generations of competitors, there will forever be the glory of their accomplishmentshighlighted by King Richard's two hundred victories. NASCAR Generations is the perfect book for any fan who has cheered on the sport's fastest fathers or favorite sons--or both. Customer Reviews (2)

Editorial Review Product Description Customer Reviews (7)
Not quite a "Driver #8" story about Driver #20. Mr. Dutton's effort with "Rebel" is better, though maybe not by leaps and bounds.The book recaps Stewart's sophomore year in Winston Cup, with each chapter corresponding roughly to a week at one track, and then the next track, etc.It's well written and it serves as an entertaining chronicle of Stewart's up-and-down 2000 season.That said, the emphasis is on off-track matters and how those matters affected Stewart's on track performance.Details about what was he was doing on the track during any given race are conspicuously missing, to the book's detriment. In fact, the book is pretty dull when it comes to conveying any on-track excitement at all, and it reads much more like a columnist reporting the news.Furthermore, I'm not even sure if Mr. Dutton actually interviewed Stewart one-on-one for any part of his book.If he did, it doesn't show.While Stewart is quoted at length throughout the text, one is left with the impression that the quotes are simply lifted from Stewart's press conferences. Even so, having Stewart's season recorded is still a treat, and what general race coverage there is is sufficient to keep the book moving.But compared to "Driver #8" which follows the same "2000 Winston Cup season, week-by-week" approach, "Rebel" unfortunately does not measure up well.This is partly because of the aforementioned lack of detail about Stewart's on-track experiences during each race, but also because Mr. Dutton simply is not Stewart.To Mr. Dutton's credit as a reporter he is objective throughout his book, but unfortunately that approach precludes the reader from developing any sense of intimacy with his subject.You might get a sense about how Stewart has been shaped by Winston Cup, but you won't feel you've gotten to know him yourself.In fact, Mr. Dutton's style is so objective that you won't even get to know HIM. Of course, if you are Stewart fan, then Earnhardt Jr.'s book certainly can't "scratch your itch."Objectively, I think "Rebel" is a three-star book, but since I'm a Stewart fan, I've given it four.The casual fan will find a better read in "Driver #8."While the tone of this review is somewhat negative, "Rebel," despite its shortcomings, is still a good, solid book.You could do a lot worse!
Just a Recap
