 great Nascar book Dec 21, 2008
All of the Eyewitness books are awesome, and if you like Nascar (or, like us, any race cars), this is probably your best bet.
 Good informative book Jun 29, 2008
Got this book for my young son. He loves race cars and this book gives him a lot to learn and look at. Unfortunately, the way NASCAR changes logos and sponsors, the driver info becomes out of date quick. The history lesson of the sport is great, though.

 Historical Revisionism May 30, 2007
The book is an entertaining enough introduction to stock car racing, and our son enjoys reading and tracing pictures of cars out of the book. But to my mind, it falls far below the standard of the Dorling-Kindersley series and is little more than a promotional piece for the current NASCAR sponsor. The sea change from real stock cars to the current lookalike shells is glossed over, but most of all the championship is referred to throughout, even in the historical sections, as the "NEXTEL Cup." This is sheer historical revisionism and unworthy of the DK series. Or are they simply terrified that children will take up smoking if they read about the "Winston Cup"?
Excellent book for young NASCAR fans! May 06, 2007
Our 6-year-old recently took an interest in NASCAR and wanted to learn as much about it as possible. We found this book at our library and he never went anywhere without it, so we ended up purchasing a copy. Not knowing much about the sport ourselves, my husband and I also found it a good way to learn the basics of NASCAR racing--it is very comprehensive--from the way the cars are designed to the safety gear on the cars and that the drivers wear, from the types of tracks to the most skilled racers of the past and present and more... Overall very informative--lots of information.

Excellent book Feb 20, 2007
We purchased this book for our 4 1/2 year old who loves Nascar. This book was great. It kept his attention and he looks at it every day. We love DK Eyewitness Books.
