Sorry. I've never heard of it. I've tried Googling the title and the author and turned up nothing other than an old thread here where it is mentioned.

I cannot recall seeing this book advertized in the Corvette media.

Al Unser and his "honeys"....back in the day. He wasn't the driver his brother Bobby was (not bad though); but he always managed to bag better rides.

Yeah...that's one I have yet to come across and I have seen lots of "Corvette" Pace Car stuff.

More than likely, it was a race day memorabilia with a short life cycle...probably like a program book for events of the day or week.

Ok, thank you all anyway. I saw this book at the National Corvette Museum last year. Maybe they can tell me anything regarding this book.

Aren't they his daughters? I believe I ran across that nugget in an issue of Corvette News.

Hey, sorry for the 8 year late reply as someone just told me about this post. I wrote that book when I owned the website pacecar dot com. I sold that site when I sold the car and the new owner wasn't related to me, my book or the 1976 Corvette Pace Car. His last name was Pace and he sold cars. It looks like there is another new owner.
