Beyond Daytona: The Global Story of Stock Car Racing

By Luca Carrera

Beyond Daytona takes readers on a high-octane journey through the roaring heart of stock car racing-not just in the American South where it was born, but around the world where it has evolved, adapted, and thrived in unexpected forms. From moonshine runners on red clay roads to V8 heroes tearing across Brazil's Interlagos, from Australia's wild Bathurst hilltop camps to sim-racers launching real-world careers, this book explores the untold global story of a sport that refuses to stand still.

With vivid storytelling and deep cultural insight, acclaimed motorsport author Author Name] unpacks seven decades of rivalries, innovation, folklore, and reinvention. Through crashes and comebacks, from local bullrings to international boardrooms, Beyond Daytona celebrates stock car racing's uncanny ability to remain gloriously, defiantly loud-while racing full-throttle into the future.

This is not just a history of cars and championships. It's the story of people, passion, and the world's most resilient form of motorsport.
