The History Channel (SKY) at 6pm Friday 12 March 2004 - SURVIVING THE EARLY DAYS OF NASCAR

Roger Daltrey buckles up and heads to Georgia's dirt tracks and super-speedways for a road trip through the unlikely evolution of NASCAR--America's top spectator sport. He learns the secret recipe for brewing "White Lightning" in a moonshiner's still, transforms a 1940 Ford Coupe into a smuggler's car, executes "bootleg" turns first used by bootleggers on the run (and later by race-car drivers), joins a winner-takes-all road rumble, and heads to the Atlanta Motor Speedway for a grand finale.
