The
complete and never before told story of midget auto racing on
Thanksgiving. From the beginning as the Thanksgiving Night Midget Grand
Prix at Gilmore Stadium in 1934, through Gardena Stadium, Ascot,
Speedway 605, Ascot again, then Saugus, Bakersfield, Perris, Irwindale
and now Ventura, Turkey Night, the third oldest auto race in the United
States, is a staple of midget racing; a pinnacle many attempt but few
reach. Race by race descriptions - Meet Bob Swanson, Bullet Joe Garson,
Mel Kenyon, Gary Bettenhausen, Billy Englehart, Bill Vukovich Parnelli
Jones, A.J. Foyt, Tony Stewart, Kyle Larson and many more big name
drivers who tackled Turkey Night. Tough racing, always surprising the
number of drivers who don't make the show !! 590 pages, 8 1/2 x 11,
B&W photos. Comes with a DVD of all the photos, articles and
videos. Autographed by the author.
