Book excerpt: The pedal meets the metal in Rolling Thunder Stock Car Racing--the thrilling series from Kent Wright and Don Keith that traces the history of stock car racing from the dusty dirt tracks of East Tennessee to the multi-million-dollar, high-tech venues of today. In the race to glory, only one man can finish first... For Jodell Lee, it's been an exciting, dizzying climb to the top of the stock car racing circuit. Gone are the days of racing round flat dirt ovals on Sunday afternoons. Stock car racing is big business now. Superspeedways have replaced the dirt tracks. Tens of thousands of fans pack the speedways for every race to watch the likes of Lee Petty, Junior Johnson, Fireball Roberts--and Jodell Lee--thunder around the steep-banked tracks of Darlington and Daytona and Charlotte. But it isn't just the business that's changed. So has Jodell. He now has a wife and a child, and also a sponsor. And they're all depending on him to win-expecting him to win. Is the pressure of always having to finish first beginning to take a toll on Jodell? A fiery crash could end his career...in Race to Glory--the exciting sequel to White Lightning and Road to Daytona.
