Bobby Isaac was champion of NASCAR in 1970 and later set more than two dozen land speed records at the Bonneville Salt Flats driving a Dodge Charger Daytona. He died in 1977 and is relatively unknown, even though his name is prominent in the NASCAR record books. He won 20 poles in a single season and 17 races in a season as well. This is Bobby's story. The book also includes a modern day test drive of Bobby's famous #71 Charger Daytona on the streets of Talladega! 206 pages.

I have seen Bobby race and he was as good as the book says. I remember when he got out of the car never to race again.

This book was pretty good for the little money that it costs. Older race fans would probably love this book.
