Sports Car and Competition Driving

Sports Car and Competition Driving was first published in 1963 by Paul Frère, but this revised edition goes into even more detail as to how to meet the new challenges race car drivers face with advancing automotive technology.

Sports Car and Competition covers a very well-written blend of driving theory with actually putting it to use in practice. It covers everything from technical analysis of the physics behind balancing the car to simple observations on how to go fast.

Frère, the author, was not only a winner at Le Mans, a Grand Prix driver, and Road & Track's European editor, he was also an engineer. All of this intelligent information delivered in an easy-to-read fashion makes this required reading for anyone interested in racing or high-performance driving.
