Coastal 181 Announces Release of Open-Wheel Photo Book

Newburyport, Mass. — Motorsports publisher Coastal 181 announced today the release of its latest title, “DID YOU SEE THAT? – Unforgettable Moments in Midwest Open-Wheel Racing,” by Joyce Standridge.

“DID YOU SEE THAT?” is unlike any previous book the company has published; it is based on 465 stunning photographs by Allen and Kevin Horcher, Bill Baker, David Hill, and Mike Campbell, annotated with interesting and amusing stories by one of America’s best motorsports journalists.

The photos, captured from 1978 to the present, represent an engaging journey through Sprint Car, Midget, and Silver Crown competition in America’s heartland. The images are sharp – sometimes heart-stopping, sometimes joyful, sometimes just funny. The lengthy captions embed Standridge’s deep knowledge of racing. Open-wheel racing on oval tracks is one of the truest and most spirited of American sports, carrying with it the legacy of traveling entertainers and entrepreneurs, old-time country fairgrounds, and the passion and bravery of the guy next door.

“DID YOU SEE THAT?” is available online at www.coastal181.com or by calling Coastal 181 at 877-907-8181 toll free. The website, updated daily, includes over 1000 other motorsports books and DVDs, as well as hundreds of photos and racing commentaries.

Priced at $27.95, “DID YOU SEE THAT?” can be ordered with free S&H until September 30, 2013.
