France, President, NASCAR "From its origins in Daytona in the '50s to today's live network broadcasts for millions of devoted fans, Robert Hagstrom offers an in-depth look at the fastest-growing sport in the country. The NASCAR Way explains how and why dozens of Fortune 500 companies have been lining up to jump on board." --Michael T. Hargrave, Senior Motorsports Manager, Anheuser-Busch, Inc. "It is great to be associated with NASCAR, the France family, and for me to get paid for what I love-to race! In The NASCAR Way, you see a prime-time sport." --Dale Earnhardt, 7-time NASCAR Winston Cup champion "An accurate and entertaining perspective to the unbridled capitalism that has built NASCAR into the #2 sport in America after football." --Bill Nielsen, Director, Promotion Development and Licensing, Kellogg USA, Inc.

First line

IT WASN'T UNTIL we came out of turn four at South Carolina's Darlington Raceway, that hot Sunday afternoon in September, that I really began to feel the full power of stock car racing.
