The Legend of the First Super Speedway:
The Battle for the Soul of American Auto Racing

A novel by Mark Dill

Foreword by Willy T. Ribbs

Introduction by Al Unser Jr.

The Legend of the First Super Speedway is a novel but told from the perspective of racing pioneers Barney Oldfield and Carl Fisher. The book thrusts you into the early 20th century with vivid interpretations of auto racing and what it would be like to walk among the people of the era and grasp their world view. You will meet rugged characters as they get "corned" on whiskey, chew "chaw," and bounce violently as they scorch the bricks of America's first speedway. You will ride with them on trains, bound across the craggy terrain of road races, and step over dead horses rotting in the street.

The world convulsed with technological change, and the winners mastered it. Everything unfolds through the eyes of Oldfield and Fisher as they grapple with a cultural battle for the soul of American auto racing. Most importantly, early auto racing's good, bad, and ugly are put before you in an unvarnished fashion. No storyteller needs to dramatize a single detail because the amazing events actually took place. 

Soft cover, 394 pages.
