Prepare to Win Carroll Smith
Carroll Smith is a legend in the world of professional racing, as a racer, team manager and an engineer Smith has a plethora of knowledge on the subject of car racing. Prepare to Win aims to give the amateur racer some of the keys to thoroughly preparing a car for a season as well as a weekend of racing. This was the second book I’ve read by Carroll Smith on the subject of race cars and the book was helpful right off the bat, pointing out which fasteners and cooling components should be used on the race car. The rest of the book was very insightful on what the best way to setup a race car is not only with parts, but most importantly to me were the methods that should be employed. I recommend this book to any automotive engineer that needs a crash course in vehicle construction and setup.
