Description
In Speed Secrets, professional race driver Ross Bentley thoroughly explains the basics of race driving and beyond, including the small adjustments that allow a driver to get the most from the car; meticulously fitting the seat, feathering the throttle back mid-corner to correct for understeer, learning to feel the difference between 7 and 10 percent lateral slip and much more.
Bentley has raced Indy Cars (CART) , world sportscars and more, and he applied his extensive driving experience to Speed Secrets. Written for and by a driver, Speed Secrets covers everything you need to know to drive fast; choosing lines, adapting to different cars and tracks, mental preparation, setting up your controls, understanding suspension and geometry adjustments, finding sponsorship and more. Commentary, tips and techniques from some of the sport's consummate professionals - from Danny Sullivan to Dr Brock Walker - add depth and perspective to Bentley's finely tuned text.
Whether you are racing an Indy car or getting started in autocross, Speed Secrets is your ticket to smoother lines, lower lap times and a more successful career.
