Chicken Soup for the Soul: NASCAR Giveaway






I was really excited when I received this NASCAR Chicken Soup book.  I met a friend about 5 or 6 years ago who was really into NASCAR, and have since met many more friends who are really into it.  Because of their love of NASCAR, I have definitely become more into it.








NASCAR and   Chicken Soup for the Soul join forces, with well-known  NASCAR   columnist Cathy Elliott   leading the charge. NASCAR drivers,  their families, and teams slow down   enough to share their   stories of  family, fortitude, and fast cars. Readers will get a    behind-the-scenes look at the action on   and off the track. Famous  drivers and those closest to them, pit crews,   families, and fans all    share their stories of perseverance, triumph, comebacks, and life. Fans  will get   a front row view,   and be inspired, surprised, and  sometimes amused by these exclusive, up   close stories from the    track, pit, and the road.







The book is  divided into 12 sections, including Lessons Learned, Dale, The Business of Speed, All in the Family and more.  From Dumpsters to a Dream Come True is a cute story written by Joey Logano, who is best known for being young haha.  Confessions of a NASCAR Convert kind of mimicked what I said above.  Scott on a Stick was an amazingly touching story about a woman whose husband died of cancer.


I  am pleased to offer a copy of Chicken Soup for the Soul: NASCAR - 101 Stories of Family, Fortitude, and Fast Cars  to 3 winners.
