On September 24, 1938, Raceway Park officially opened its doors, and the track remained open for over 60 years. The first race was won by Harry McQuinn, who went on to compete in the Indianapolis 500 and become the chief pit steward of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. In 1948, Raceway Park added stock car races to its regular program, and the track became a popular entertainment venue throughout the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s as thousands of Chicagoans filled the stands. The track held its last race in 2000 and was torn down the following year. Although Raceway Park is now a part of history, the "World's Busiest Track" is still in the hearts and minds of many Chicagoland race fans.

As Darlington's track photographer during that time, Tom Kirkland used on of the period's few cameras to feature automatic film advance. His resulting mastery of the photo sequence hatched a collection of long-forgotten images that capture some the most heart-stopping finishes and bone-crunching crashes NASCAR has ever witnessed. Readers are also treated to rare shots of NASCAR heroes on the track, in pitlane, and atop the winner's podium. The season-by-season coverage of NASCAR at Darlington features brief introductions for each chapter and detailed captions for every photo. In addition, quotes from drivers, owners, and others are interspersed throughout. The book is capped off with a comprehensive appendix listing vital statistics for all NASCAR races held at Darlington during the period.

Presents a selection of games to be played or made with balls and tracks. Illustrates some scientific principles such as gravity, momentum, and kinetic energy.
