Starting to get more into NASCAR and I'm looking for a good book from the behind-the-scenes perspective, specifically from the pit crew point of view.

Any recommendations?

If you don't mind an old perspective, Smokey Yunick's auto-bio is pretty smoking awesome.

Check out "Cheating: an inside look at the bad things good nextel cup racers do in the pursuit of speed"

It's a couple years old as you can tell, but lots of cool stories.

The Weekend Starts on Wednesday is a good book about the fans. Great stories.

Richard Huff wrote a book, called "Behind The Wall - A Season On The NASCAR Circuit". Huff spent the entire 1991 Winston Cup season, as a crew member on Terry Labonte's, Billy Hagan Racing Oldsmobile.

Someone bought me a copy of it years ago, because they knew I was crewing on a Trans Am team, and thought I'd enjoy it. It's not a bad book, and though it may be dated some today, I don't think that life as a racing team crew member, has changed all that much.

It's long out of print, but you may be able to find a copy trough the internet, ebay, etc.
