Book Reviews of Speed Secrets: Professional Race Driving Techniques
Book Review: Best book on race car driving I have seen
Summary: 5 Stars
Bentley's book is the best I have read on the subject. It is nicely written (not obvious in this subject matter), the language being very clear and direct. Although different people learn in different ways this seems to be a book for everyone. The emphasis is however on formula (or at least rear engined) cars. Now, that Ross Bentley has enough distinct speed secrets to fill up five more books is frankly a stretch. I am reading the second one and, although perhaps at a more sophisticated level, the message is more or less the same. I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to understand (if not try) how to drive a race car at speed. It is certainly worth the money and the time.
