4.0 out of 5 stars
A fast biography of a speedster!,
By
This review is from: On the Track with Jeff Gordon (Paperback)
Jeff Gordon is one of the lucky ones who found his passion at an early age - took to it & never looked back.From BMX bicycles to 2.85-horsepower midgets to go-carts to open sprint cars with 650-horsepower engines pushing these little cars beyond 140 miles per hour, Jeff Gordon ate it all up & kept racing & winning. With black & white photographs, graphs of statistics, Career Highlights, technical data about all sorts of auto-racing & short, engaging histories of the various forms of auto-racing, the rest of the book, as they say, is history. By the age of 21 he had become NASCAR's Rookie of the Year, breaking records, driving safely, losing some & winning most. A plainly written autobiography of one of today's great drivers & heroes.
