Description: This is the first biography published of Fireball Roberts, the best NASCAR driver never to be champion according to many. He was one of the first drivers to master the superspeedways, but it was a fiery accident at one of them that took his life. Author Godwin Kelly was amazed to discover that Roberts` story had never been told and this book is the result. It is a story of a changing NASCAR series, with the cars moving from dirt to asphalt and speeds rising faster than the safety provisions of the time could match. It is a great story about an amazing driver, who should never be forgotten.
