Summary: For a sport with no real statistics, a noble attempt
Review: I am not a NASCAR fan, but I am a statistical sports buff. While stock car racing doesn't really qualify as a sport, this book does its best to catalog as many 'stats' as can be collected. While I'd like average finish information and breakdowns by dirt, tri-oval, road, superspeadway, etc, this is a good start at creating an encyclopedia of stock car racing. The key stats are 1st, 2nd, ... 5th place finishes, laps completed, and events started for each year. Another edition with far more detail would be quite welcome.
