After a couple of seasons of small-town racing, things are shifting into high gear for a young dirt-track driver with the skills to make it big. Trace Bonham has landed a corporate sponsor and a custom-built dream ride. But this means Trace can no longer pilot his dad's Street Stock Chevy, and must let a new kid get behind the wheel. It also means having to turn his back on his hometown speedway, which his team leaders think is a hayseed operation not worth their time, even though it's run by a girl who matters to Trace in a big way. Filled with authentic race-car action and detail, Will Weaver's fast-paced novel is the story of a boy struggling with the speed and demands of his own success.

Super Stock takes a look at what was, in the 1960s, the most popular class of drag racing -- factory Super Stock. It traces the evolution of the cars, the engines, the rules, the personalities, and many of the teams, from Super Stock's beginnings in the mid-1950s through the 1960s and the era of the Super Stock 409s, Ramchargers, 421 Pontiacs, and 406 Fords.Included are first person accounts of what drag racing was really like in the early 1960s: how the manufacturers controlled the competition and the results of the races; how the sanctioning bodies attempted to control the manufacturers, who in turn simply sidestepped the rules. Appendices include the major event winners and rules defining the classes, as well as information detailing the engines and chassis competing in Top Stock categories.

The Author writes about the superperformance stocks of the time, and the common denominators of those stocks. What traits do they have in common, how to find them? Definition of a superperformance stock: "One that at least tripled in price and increased at a minimum rate of three times during a two-year period. A move was considered ended if the price failed to reach a new high in less than six months, or if there was a price reaction of 25 percent or more." Stocks that have a chance to become superperformance stocks share some of these characteristics: * Large increases of earnings, especially if the large increase comes as a surprise. * Mergers and acquisitions. * New management. * New products. The best results come after the market has experienced a severe correction or a bear market, because that is the time when there would be many bargain opportunities in that environment. History often repeats itself in the stock market. The names of the stocks change, but the overall situation is always similar. Acceleration of earning power is the most important thing to look for when examining the potential of a stock to become a superperformance stock. And the superperformance move will most often coincide with the bull market cycle of the general market.
