There is a new book out about Nascar. Liz Clarke, wrote about Tim Richmond's trumped up drug charge! If anyone out there, that likes reading! Days of Thunder was about Richmond. :icon_smile_blackeye

I was a huge Richmond fan back in the day. It started with him running in the 500. On my wall here in my den I have a copy of the painting of him riding back to the pits sitting on JR's sidepod after he won. What NASCAR did to him was horrible. Had he lived I will guarantee Earnhardt would have a few less championships

Besides the book where can I read up on him? I have a diecast of his that is worth some $$ I think. I cant read books....insert jokes here____. They put me to sleep in no time flat!

Did check for you, but not on Cd for the blind yet:thumb

There is a book on Tims life. It is a good read.

His dad basically invented the underground boring machine.

NASCAR may have been rough on him, but he, like most of us, was no saint and ultimately he played too close to the flame and got burnt.

I too wish that he would have lived and raced longer. He was exciting and he had a personality that was fun to see. As the book pointed out, he lived his life in a way and did things years before anyone else did.

You probably only read while in the cruiser dont you??

Andrew, when do you think I read?:thumb

Read the book about Tim. It's worth it. He was no saint but was done wrong. IMO

Didnt know you changed jobs, Danny. Thought you just read everyone elses SC&M magazines on your route.

I'll have to go book hunting this weekend. I have a book on Tim, but it wasnt that great of a read.
