Nick has written two articles on British drag racing history for Custom Car magazine. In 2008 he was asked to join the British Drag Racing Hall of Fame, both as a board member and as their historian, and has been writing the profiles for the new inductees.

Kurlansky devotes substantial pages to Greenberg's marriages, relations with his children, and post baseball activities and life.
