Book excerpt: 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.
Download or read book Running Up Front written by Ted Hull and published by . This book was released on 2015-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Running Up Front" will transport you from the grandstand to the pit lane, from your TV to turn four, so you'll never view stock car racing-or life-in the same way again. There is a message underneath the roar of engines, a view of life from the spotter's stand, and lessons to be learned during a thirteen-second pit stop. In the same way that winning race teams have access to virtually limitless resources, we can have access to the unlimited divine resources which fuel a successful life. Like spotters who have a broad view of the track, we need people in our lives who see things in and around us to which we are oblivious. Drivers can get caught up in crashes they didn't cause and can't avoid, just as we can be the victims of personal and relational wrecks. These are a few of the fifteen life lessons we can learn from stock car racing. Ted Hull draws on his own life experiences, including some of his wins and wrecks. His desire is that you will be encouraged and challenged to drive the race of your life that will have you "Running Up Front." ..".the One who put you behind the wheel will make sure that you have all that you need for running up front." -Mike Yorkey, author of the "Playing with Purpose" series and co-author of the "Every Man's Battle" series About the Author: Ted's passion for NASCAR, thirty years as a counselor and diverse life experiences are wrapped up in "Running Up Front." Although the closest NASCAR track is over eight hundred miles away, Ted has attended dozens of races and driven at the Richard Petty Driving Experience. If he always practiced the lessons he talks about in "Running Up Front," he admits that he'd be a better husband, father, friend, and colleague.

Download or read book Racing While Black written by Leonard T. Miller and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting a NASCAR team is hard work. Starting a NASCAR team as an African American is even harder. These are just a few of the lessons learned by Leonard T. Miller during his decade and a half of running an auto racing program. Fueled by more than the desire to win, Miller made it his goal to create opportunities for black drivers in the vastly white, Southern world of NASCAR. Racing While Black chronicles the travails of selling marketing plans to skeptics and scraping by on the thinnest of budgets, as well as the triumphs of speeding to victory and changing the way racing fans view skin color. With his father—former drag racer and longtime team owner Leonard W. Miller—along for the ride, Miller journeys from the short tracks of the Carolinas to the boardrooms of the "Big Three" automakers to find out that his toughest race may be winning over the human race.

Download or read book You Suck at Racing written by Ian Korf and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of books on driving are written by professional racers who assume you too want to be a professional racer. Not this book. It's written by a hobbyist who suggests you keep your day job. Besides, it's much more fun being an enthusiastic amateur than a jaded professional (just ask someone in the sex industry). This book is designed to help the average driver make the transition from commuter to safe road racer in as few pages as possible. I wrote this book because it's what I would have wanted to read when I first became interested in track driving: succinct, nerdy, practical, and occasionally diverting. It is not intended as a definitive tome or a work of art. It's more like a sandwich: convenient and nourishing.
