Synopsis Dynasties by : Frank Moriarty

"He was with me tonight. I dedicate this win to him."--Dale Earnhardt, Jr. After winning the Daytona 500 a year after his father died racing on the same track. Racing is in the blood. Perhaps more than any other sport, stock car racing boasts a tradition of dynasties, multiple generations of superstars. From the Pettys and the Jarretts to the Earnhardts and the Labontes, this action-packed, photo-filled tribute honors those who keep it all in the family. Here are the grandfather, fathers, sons, and brothers who have made--and continue to make--motorcar history on the high-banked tracks of the Winston Cup Series. Among those who consistently deliver heart stopping performances in this thrilling dangerous sport are the France family, whose paterfamilias "Big Bill" France founded NASCAR, the Waltrips, Bodines, Andrettis, and many others.

Synopsis Bud Moore's Right Hand Man by : Greg Moore

Greg Moore is one of three sons of NASCAR Hall of Famer Bud Moore. Bud is a highly decorated World War II veteran who landed on Utah Beach on D-Day. Greg grew up in an auto racer's world in which his father's cars and drivers won dozens of races and back to back championships. Those drivers were Greg's friends, and two died in racing crashes within a year when he was 6 to 7 years old. Greg chose racing over college and went to work in his father's business, staying there for the next 25 years. He worked especially with racing engines and became team manager for such winning drivers as Bobby Allison, Dale Earnhardt, Ricky Rudd and Geoff Bodine until Bud Moore Engineering was sold in 2000. Greg accompanies his father everywhere making personal appearances. His personal recollections of a life that others could only dream of, from childhood to adulthood, give fascinating insight into the world of big-time stock car racing.
