Wisconsin International Raceway: Where the Big Ones Run!, Paperback

"Coming up to race at WIR with the best short-track racers in the country was an extremely valuable asset to my career. It is a source of great pride for me to have won two Red, White and Blue series championships." - Mark Martin, one of "NASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers"

Wisconsin International Raceway's famous tagline is an accurate description for the generations of big-name drivers who have honed their skills on the Kaukauna racetrack.

WIR has been THE Wisconsin racing destination for more than half a century for local hotshots such as Terry Baldry, Scott Hansen and Lowell Bennett, as well as NASCAR stars Mark Martin, Matt Kenseth, Alan Kulwicki, Dick Trickle and more.

Author Joe Verdegan shares interviews and classic photos to introduce the colorful characters and off-track stories that are part of WIR's lore.
