  • 50 Years of NASCAR Captures All That Has Made Bill France’S Dream Into a Firm, Big-Money Reality
    < mill NASCAR OF NASCAR ■ TP'S FAST, ITS FURIOUS, IT'S SPINE- I tingling, jump-out-of-youn-seat action, a sport created by a fan for the fans, it’s all part of the American dream. Conceived in a hotel room in Daytona, Florida, in 1948, NASCAR is now America’s fastest-growing sport and is fast becoming one of America’s most-watched sports. As crowds flock to see state-of-the-art, 700-horsepower cars powering their way around high-banked ovals, outmaneuvering, outpacing and outthinking each other, NASCAR has passed the half-century mark. 50 Years of NASCAR captures all that has made Bill France’s dream into a firm, big-money reality. It traces the history and the development of the sport through the faces behind the scene who have made the sport such a success and the personalities behind the helmets—the stars that the crowds flock to see. There is also a comprehensive statistics section featuring the results of the Winston Cup series and the all-time leaders in NASCAR’S driving history plus a chronology capturing the highlights of the sport. Packed throughout with dramatic color illustrations, each page is an action-packed celebration of all that has made the sport what it is today. Whether you are a die-hard fan or just an armchair follower of the sport, 50 Years of NASCAR is a must-have addition to the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in the sport. $29.95 USA/ $44.95 CAN THIS IS A CARLTON BOOK ISBN 1 85868 874 4 Copyright © Carlton Books Limited 1998 Project Editor: Chris Hawkes First published 1998 Project Art Editor: Zoe Maggs Reprinted with corrections 1999, 2000 Picture Research: Catherine Costelloe 10 9876 5 4321 Production: Sarah Corteel Design: Graham Curd, Steve Wilson All rights reserved.

  • The Growth of the Nascar Industry in Charlotte, North Carolina, 1949-2000
    CITY OF RACERS: THE GROWTH OF THE NASCAR INDUSTRY IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, 1949-2000 by Bryan Paul Gable A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2018 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Mark Wilson ______________________________ Dr. Aaron Shapiro ______________________________ Dr. Ritika Prasad ii ©2018 Bryan Paul Gable ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT BRYAN PAUL GABLE. City of Racers: The Growth of the NASCAR Industry in Charlotte, North Carolina, 1949-2000. (Under the direction of Dr. Mark Wilson) This study explores the development of the NASCAR industry in the city of Charlotte and its surrounding region through the second half of the twentieth century. I argue that NASCAR and Charlotte were seeking the same goals in the late twentieth century: greater national prominence and a strong relationship with corporate America. As a result, NASCAR found a technological and cultural home in Charlotte by proving its worth as a desirable and highly profitable industry. I explain how Charlotte Motor Speedway emerged from bankruptcy and became an exemplary venue for NASCAR by solidifying its reputation as the showplace of NASCAR. I also describe the culture of specialization that the Holman-Moody race team fostered in Charlotte. Later generations of Charlotte NASCAR teams would continue to embrace innovative methods for managing a race team. Finally, I discuss Charlotte’s importance as a growing urban center of the Piedmont and NASCAR’s contributions to building Charlotte’s regional identity. iv DEDICATION For my grandfather, who taught me that academic excellence is its own reward.
