I had my first autocross experience this weekend and had a lot of fun. Considering my car's setup I should be able to do much better than I did. I'm not saying my car is well setup, but that I've got close to zero skills.
What I'd like to do now is start learning some of the basics of racing, vehicle dynamics, etc. I want to at least have the theory down and get some idea of what I should be doing. So I'm looking for reccomendations on books or videos or anything that can help me get started with this. -Tony |

I learned quite a bit from a motorcycle book entitled "a Twist of the Wrist"
Alot of the info transfers to cars. Beyond that all of my learning has come from instructors, either @ Skip Barber, Derek Daly, or local PCA/POC stuff. Should have gottne the lotus guy to ride w/ you early in the day, he waould have been helpful. BJH |
