Yee-haw, honey! NASCAR romance fiction gets rear-ended...
:rofl:

In an exciting American cultural development - a couple of years ago, the Harlequin conglomerate unleashed a new genre - NASCAR romance novels.

No, I'm not making that up.

The posters over at Jalopnik.com are having a lot of fun with the concept. You can also see a selection of the book covers:

Whoops! You forgot to include the covers with African-American people. Or Asians. Or Jews. Or Hispanics. Or Catholics. Or Democrats.

There might be a couple gay guys in there though. Just don't tell their wives.

The fun really started when the Jalopniks started writing their own versions:

In the past, Sue-Ann would throw up a caution flag when Billy gave her the eye, but not today. Maybe it was the cube of Busch Light, or perhaps it was the fact that her 7 kids were over at her momma's, but she was hotter than Georgia asphalt, and for once, a wet track wasn't a bad thing. Billy read the signals clearly, and like a perfectly executed pit stop, he was in and out in under 12 seconds. God, she loved that man.

Have fun!

(Some grumps will probably complain that this makes fun of the South. FTS. I was raised in South Carolina and thought it was hilarious.)

1. Gotta tell ya
There are some real drama queens out there dustin' the trophies.(And polluting the message boards!) And there some awesome ladies out there, too - who can turn wrenches, drive anything, and feed a crew of 12 on the cheap.
One of my dad's cronies was a jalopy (later modified) racer named "Stroker". His wife had a voice like Selma Diamond after 4 packs of Camels - and she made the best homemade donuts you ever ate. Great lady.
