A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Jeff Hammond, one of NASCAR's all-time great crew chiefs, recalls the thrilling moments of his life in racing: starting out as a tire changer for Walter Ballard in 1974 and quickly becoming one of the best jackmen in the business; serving on all three of driver Cale Yarborough's championship seasons; and then taking over as crew chief during the glory days of legendary driver Darrell Waltrip. The stories Hammond tells about his life in NASCAR and the greats he has known are funny and—sometimes—tragic. He has strong opinions about the current state of the sport and pulls no punches as he offers his insights about the last 30 years when the sport grew so phenomenally from a regional obsession into a national pastime.

Revue de presse

“Racing is all about chemistry. Hammond and I had it. We were always on the same page. Sometimes I was on the front page though, and he was on the back page!” —Darrell Waltrip

“Jeff Hammond has been around racing for a long time--almost as long as me--and he has seen a lot. He's had a lot of success down in the pits where races are won, and he has a lot of stories to tell--some good, some bad--and they are all right here, in this terrific book.” —Richard Petty
