Book Reviews of Speed Secrets 4: Engineering the Driver

Book Review: Speed Secrets for everyone
Summary: 5 Stars

So far all the Speed Secrets books have been intended for the driver, but in this book Ross Bentley makes a case for applying the Speed Secrets principles to coaching. This book is written for anyone who wants to help a driver succeed, and like the previous SS books, it's very clearly written and has lots of practical strategies for helping a driver be a faster, more consistent racer. It's good information for a parent or team owner who wants a driver to do better but doesn't know exactly how to go about it.

Summary of Speed Secrets 4: Engineering the Driver

Ross Bentley. Race teams have discovered great benefits can be derived from "tuning" their driver to perform at his/her full potential. Thus, this book is for everyone who works with a driver: engineers, crew chiefs, team owners, mechanics, and the driver's parents. This unique book instructs the driver's support team how to prepare and communicate with the driver so the driver delivers the best performance in races, practice sessions, and off-track team functions. Written by veteran racer and driving coach Ross Bentley, this book helps the driver's support team devise effective approaches to "tuning" their driver. It will help them identify techniques that do and don't work with their specific driver. The result should be better communication and a driver who is "tuned" for success.
