What books, article, scrolls, stone tablets, etc, can I read to learn more about performance driving? RS200 pics for your time.

Go to a driving school.

Seriously, it's the best way to learn.

I'm hoping to get a slot this year for my SCCA region's driving school for a weekend. I had to miss it last year. Books are a much cheaper option for now.

Read this to understand more about how your car works, then go drive. Autocross, HPDEs, deserted backroads, anywhere. Just drive, and don't be afraid to ask for instruction at events.

Not as much about pure driving as all of the other things that go into being a good driver, but a good one to have. Best way to learn is still to get behind the wheel. SCCA region school is a good place to start so you are on the right track.

I plan on having a summer full of AutoX events this year. Last year I was only able to make it to one for multiple reasons.

I wanted to go to my region's driving school last summer but couldn't make it.

Any book from William Milliken, especially this one :

And also "Go Like Hell" by A.J Baime, you probably won't learn a lot about performance driving, but that's an awesome story. READ THIS BOOK !

Michael Krumm has driven pretty much everything, from Super Formula, to Super GT, GT3 GT1, soon to be LMP1.

This is an utterly fantastic book. Ignore the ridiculous amazon pricing, i got it for about £15 ($20/25) a couple of years ago.

Its abit mental isnt it. Clearly they didn't print enough publications. its got an RRP of $40, which still seems steep.

I did just go and check my copy, see if its a first edition or anything ha. the versions on UK amazon are more like £600. mad.
