“I admire Scott Robinson for two things – his superb photography skills and his honesty … I was a professional photographer for more than twenty years and would be proud to claim any of Robinson’s images as my own.” SPEEDtv.com “This book is billed as A Pictorial Tribute to America’s Greatest Sport, which some might argue with, but not here.” Road & Track "Through this photo-heavy guide, you'll learn about the drivers, experience the fans, spy on the crew chiefs and hear of encounters with these American idols. All the big guns are here, from Richard Petty and Jeff Gordon to Dale Jr. and Kasey Kahne.” Edmonds.com The action on the track isnt the only story in NASCAR. In a sport that has trancended its "playing field" to become a cultural phenomenon, NASCAR racing has become as much about the star driver, the grizzled crew chief, the calculating team owner, the hard-working pit crew, the skilled hands back at the race shop, and the die-hard fans as it is about brightly colored cars speeding by at 200 mph. Through evocative candid portrait photography from the lens of Scott Robinson, Faces of NASCAR explores the full spectrum of people involved in the Nextel Cup series, from drivers to officials to spectators. Each subject is photographed in a striking portrait, with incredible detail. Robinsons simple, yet powerful photographic portrayals highlight the passion, intensity, and joy these racing diehards feel when they are spending the weekend at the track. A must-have for any NASCAR fan, Faces of NASCAR speaks to the human side of this exciting and fascinating sport through these portraits as well as commentary from those who love this sport most.
