Summary

It begins with a low rumbling, the sound of power waiting to be unleashed. When the green flag drops, powerful eight hundred-horsepower engines scream to life, huge rear tires paw for traction in the dirt -- and machines leap forward with unbelievable acceleration. This is sprint car racing! Down and dirty, short track racing has been the proving ground for many of the current stars on the NASCAR Winston Cup circuit. Spectacular photographs make "Sprint Car Racing" a window onto the world in which such drivers as Johnny Rutherford, Mario Andretti, Ken Schrader, and Jeff Gordon got their start.
