RACING WHILE BLACK: HOW AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN STOCK CAR TEAM MADE ITS MARK ON NASCAR
Book ID/图书代码： 10B37673
English Summary/英文概要： “Miller throws the restrictor plate away for this race. He takes you to the red line.”—Bobby Gerhart, five-time winner of the ARCA Daytona 200
Starting a NASCAR team is hard work. Starting a NASCAR team as an African American is even harder. These are just a few of the lessons learned by Leonard T. Miller during his decade and a half of running an auto racing program. Fueled by more than the desire to win, Miller made it his goal to create opportunities for black drivers in the vastly white, Southern world of NASCAR. His forthcoming book chronicles the travails of selling marketing plans to skeptics and scraping by on the thinnest of budgets, as well as the triumphs of speeding to victory and changing the way racing fans view skin color. With his father—former drag racer and longtime team owner Leonard W. Miller—along for the ride, Miller journeys from the short tracks of the Carolinas to the boardrooms of the “Big Three” automakers to find out that his toughest race may be winning over the human race.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 创建一支斯纳卡车队绝不是什么省力的活，而要创建一支非裔车队更是难上加难，Leonard T. Miller在他十年半的赛车生涯中深有体会，而这仅仅是一小部分。比起赢得比赛，Miller拥有更大的愿望:他要为黑人车手在白人一手遮天的斯纳卡赛车世界争取他们的一席之地。
在他这本即将出版的自传中，Miller详细描述了一路走来的艰辛与收获，从含辛茹苦四处兜售市场营销计划，到努力削减启动预算；从奔向胜利的冲刺，到改变观众对赛车选手肤色的认识。
Miller在他的父亲的陪伴下四处奔波，走过卡罗莱纳州的小道，也曾出现在美国三大汽车巨头的公司中，他所寻找的是超越普通竞技的最伟大的比赛。(RH)
