Reading material

beats · 03-21-2015, 09:34 PM

Hey guys, I was looking for suggestions on books to read to compliment learning on the track. I have read both "Driving on the Edge" by Michael Krumm and "Ultimate Speed Secrets" by Ross Bentley a couple of times now. "Go Faster: Mastering the Art of Race Driving" by Carl Lopez seems to get good reviews on Amazon.

I'm not planning on racing, but still think there is a lot of value in some of the books with racing focus, you can just tone it down a bit, and pick up the concepts.

Anybody have any feedback or ideas of other books to read?

Thanks
