Great photos, but the text has more misinformation than Howard Dean.

Some very cool old photo's! Unfortunatly the person matching the captions to the photo's must still be living in the '70s and smoking pot! Some of the captions don't match what is in the photo.

For those of us who remember the days when Pro Stock race cars looked like the cars we drove on the street. Well put together photos and descriptions make it worth the price of admission to the pits!

If (thatguy01) is going to review a book, he must read it very carefully to give the review credibility. Page 37, "Ive Beringhouse is gone now" and page 109, "Don suffered fatal injuries." Quite clear that these race car drivers are deceased. Pro Stock fans will love this book.

Plenty of good photos. Lots of color photos. The b/w photos are from great b/w drag racing photographers, like Charlie Gilchrist (you can see more at [...]).

I've docked two stars because of the captions.

There are obvious errors that don't correspond to the photos (eg, "Sandy Elliot" driving the Sandy Elliot Comet when usual shoe Barrie Poole's name is lettered on the window), plus spelling errors that are evident from the photos, so I don't have a lot of confidence in any information that isn't directly based on the photos.
