NASCAR Confidential! During the 1997 Winston Cup season, author Scott Huler was granted unlimited access to the Square D race team and its driver, Kenny Wallace. The result is this anecdotal and oftentimes humorous look behind the closed doors of NASCAR shops, garages, pitlanes, luxury suites and traveling caravans. To truly understand the madness of life on the Winston Cup circuit, Huler focuses on a single week with the team, dishing up a candid narrative of Square D's efforts to engineer a winning game plan for the coming weekend in Charlotte. As he exposes the pressures of life on the road with NASCAR, as well as the roles played by the team's sponsors and owners, Huler treats readers to conversations between Wallace and his crew, relating in non-technical jargon the numerous challenges that confront the team, and the mechanical changes that profoundly affect the car's performance. As readers stand by in the paddock for Friday's qualifying and Sunday's race, Huler wanders campgrounds inhabited by diehard fans, offering thoroughly entertaining yet poignant observations that distill the very essence of NASCAR's tremendous appeal.
