Summary: Important Engineering handbook for any motorsport pro!
Comment: The definitive motorsport engineer's handbook. It is an absolute must for anyone who considers themselves a professional in this industry. Buy this book through Amazon, or if you want a signed copy, try doing a google search on Carroll Smith to find other useful Carroll Smith links. He is one smart man!
Engineering is the crux of it all, no question about it. I bought Carroll's whole set of books begrudgingly, but they helped me improve my game BIG TIME. I am much more able to discuss with my engineer now. My mechanic gave me his copy (it was obviously used once or twice!) and ordered me to get a copy of my own. The pole positions that came quickly after it proved this book's worth.
This one is a little technical, but if you can get through it with a dictionary at your side and really understand what's being said, you'll find yourself a happy person.

Summary: Packed with Nerd details!
Comment: This book is packed with all the nerd one could ever use.
I would rate this book very high for someone looking to increase their techinical knowledge of racing. It covers different types of materials and their ability to hold up during a race. Very good book.

Summary: Racecar designer's bible
Comment: This book can look a little daunting as you flick through the pages, however, once you begin to read it, you realise just how good it is! Starting with a basic metallurgy and physics course that most school text books should look to copy, Mr. Smith keeps interest in what could be a somewhat tedious subject using witty comments and practical observations. He then leads us through steel making, alloy processes and finally on to the application of all of the above in the racing car. A brilliant book from start to finish. The only criticism that I would make is that it needs an update to include more on composite techniques and finite element analysis.
