Description
What do Elvis, Earnhardt, and bootleggers have in common?
They all crossed paths with Stick Elliott, the best race car driver you never knew. A force to be reckoned with, he drives for money, women, pride, and glory. But he lives for speed. And he’s damn good at it. Stick can make a getaway with a trunk full of moonshine across the Carolina backroads faster than any man around. Now with the homemade liquor business running dry, Stick just needs to catch as many checkered flags as he can on the track, and maybe even the heart of the most beautiful woman he has ever seen.
Stick wants to win it all on the newly formed NASCAR circuit, but he feels something lurking in the shadows, at the edges of his consciousness. Can he outmaneuver it and keep his wheels spinning fast? Or will the wild ride come to an end?

Randee B, Reviewer
Stick Elliott got his start racing the backwoods of North Carolina as he hauled his granddaddy’s moonshine. Taking the skills learned while outrunning the law, Stick transitions to racing other drivers on tracks throughout the southeast. Dirt track racing is Stick’s passion, but he also races in the newly formed NASCAR circuit. Stick lives for speed, and while he can outpace the other drivers, he can’t run faster than his past fears.
Moonshine and NASCAR. Two of my favorite things. SOUTHERN STOCK is based on the true story of racecar driver Stick Elliott—and it’s written by one of his daughters. It is a captivating, fast-paced novel that follows Stick both on and off the track, and it covers his life story from his teenage years running moonshine up to his untimely death. SOUTHERN STOCK is the perfect novel for anyone interested in the early days of NASCAR and moonshining.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.
