Book Reviews of Going Faster! Mastering the Art of Race Driving
Book Review: A core resource book for the high performance driver/racer
Summary: 5 Stars
Comprehensive, technically accurate (without being so scientific as to induce glazed eyes or confusion in the reader) and immensely pragmatic with the insights of highly experienced competition drivers, this book is a "must have" for the resource library of a high performance driver and/or competition racer. Having attended numerous "Skippy School" programs years ago, which were excellent in their organization and attention to detail, this book carries on with that excellence in its direct presentation of the factors you need to be aware of, why a car does the things it does, and what to do as a driver to handle your car. It is not a substitute for a good high performance driving/racing school....nothing can be. But it is a great way to get an orientation and overview of what to expect if you have not been to racing school, and a way to extract even more from the experience after you have returned from an on track teaching program and decided that you really want to know more. Even if you determine that further high performance driving experience is not your desire or destiny, reading this book will greatly enhance your appreciation and respect for what is going on in the cockpit of a race car, on the track, and in the pits. Like a school coursebook, this is a text that takes multiple sessions, time, focus and reflection to extract all that it has to offer. Lots of useful content in one place.
