5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book for any autocrosser!, 9 Jan 1999

By A Customer

I highly recommend this book if you have any intention of being competitive in autocross driving. In fact, I would recommend it even for casual racers. Tons of great information on driving technique, the fast line, tire adhesion, preparation of the car and driver, and more. This book should be required reading for anyone who wants to drive fast.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for a novice too, 4 Dec 1998

By A Customer

I have just begun autocrossing this year. A fellow autcrosser reccemended this book. I was very pleased with the information. There are many diagrams to explain concepts and ideas. I was able to drop 1 second off my time in under a month. The only thing that I didn't like was that I drive a FWD vehicle. There was a very limited amount of information on these vehicles. But the few things that where there were very helpful. I applied the phyics to my driving, just not the chassis set-up advice. Otherwise a great book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Short and Sweet: How to Drive Better, 28 Jul 1997

By A Customer

First, let me say that I am an accomplished race car driver, with several national championship road racing wins. My own driving style is smooth and efficient, with no wasted motion, and an emphasis on looking and thinking ahead.

Hank Watts' "Secrets of Solo Racing" is the first book that I've ever seen that teaches the style of driving that has made me a successful racer. Like the driving style, the prose is smooth and efficient, with no wasted words. It is simple and clear, and best of all, it can make you a better driver. While some parts of the book are specific to SCCA Solo racing, the driving skills you improve will help you on the road course or the street.
