Description
Long known as "The Great American Race," the Daytona 500® is the Super Bowl® of stock-car racing. However, until February 18, 1979, when CBS Sports gambled on covering the race live for the first time, most Americans paid little attention to the event. This book details why the 1979 Daytona 500® changed NASCAR® forever, tracing the individual stories of such legendary drivers as Richard Petty, Cale Yarborough, and Darrell Waltrip.
