In almost four decades as a car owner, he was victorious at the Daytona 500, the Southern 500--three times--and at dozens of other NASCAR events, and won three Grand National Division championships, a Grand American championship and the Sports Car Club of America Trans Am championship. He was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2011, with 63 wins and 43 poles. The cars built by Bud Moore Engineering have been raced by some of America's most talented drivers, including Buck Baker, Bobby Allison, Dan Gurney, Parnelli Jones, Tiny Lund, David Pearson, Buddy Baker, Fireball Roberts and many others. Moore continuously sought to improve his machines, making them not only faster but safer, and many of his innovations were quickly adopted throughout NASCAR and by the auto industry. This is Moore's story in his own words, covering his early life in Depression-era Spartanburg, South Carolina, his combat experience during the Invasion of Normandy, his racing career, and his family life and retirement as a gentleman farmer. Many never before seen photos are included.Language: EnglishItem Height: 254mmItem Length: 178mmAuthor: Bud Moore, Perry Allen WoodGenre: Sports & HobbiesTopic: BiographyISBN-10: 0786499540Country/Region of Manufacture: USItem Width: 11mmItem Weight: 381gType: Formula One & Other Motor RacingRelease Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
