FAITH IN THE FAST LANE by Chad Bonham is Available Now

Taking you on a journey from motor racing's roots in the days of Prohibition and moonshine through NASCAR culture today, author and sports journalist Chad Bonham offers candid stories about how the faith movement has been active in the sport, then and now.

This work features interviews with well-known personalities, including: Justin Allgaier, Mark Martin, Bobby Allison, Andy Petree, Trevor Bayne, Richard Petty, Brad Daugherty, Dr. Jerry Punch, Ned Jarrett, Ricky Stenhouse Jr, Matt Kenseth, and Darrell Waltrip.
