too many stats, not enuf bolts
I bought this book and read it. I hate to say it but I was pretty disappointed. It was just a big pile of names and records, a stats freaks dream but nothing for me. I wanted to know aboout the cars, the engines, how exactly did they create an AWB. I wanted more tech stuff on the cars, not a bunch of names and times.Tech talk was pretty shallow in my opinion. I will say it is a visual treasure, lots of nice pictures of these cars, and a full color section too. Neal Zimmerman, Eugene Oregon
A great photo history of a bygone era.
This book is a must-have for the drag racing historian or any car nut that missed out on the golden era of drag racing the 'family' car. Numerous photos depicting how the cars were set up and raced. A fun flashback!
Super Stocks Forever
What a book! Thank you Mr.Davis for taking the enormous amount of time to compile all this info in one place. With the wealth of unseen (by me) photos this book makes me feel like I was there even though I was too young in the 1960's to experience these cars live. The book is a great reference guide for me as I am now in the process of building a nostalgia super stocker of my own.
