Fabulous Fifties: American Championship Racing

With box scores and statistics of all the National Championship races throughout the 1950's, this fine book chronicles the formative years of America's post-war National Championship, when very brave and very tough young men vied for victory on a host of dirt ovals and Indianapolis, with little more than an inexpensive helmet to protect themselves.

Fabulous Fifties: American Championship Racing, with a foreword by Champion Rodger Ward, is packed with hundreds of vintage photos and championship results, and includes a host of great first-hand stories about the era's prominent drivers, mechanics, builders, promoters, and owners.
