Recomend me a book on racing lines etc
Discussion
Hi,
I compete on circuits (sprints) at a grassroots level and recently discovered that the line I was taking through a particular type of corner could be better. Once I'd worked it out I researched it on the internet and it was interesting, including explaining why my line wasn't the best. (My line wasn't stupid, by the way, but there was a better one that might be counterintuitive at first). I would like diagrams and stuff in a general way to help me understand the physics, rather than circuit-specific guides.
Thanks

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I have already put tuition on my list of pressies but the two circuits I use the most - Lotus Hethel and Snetterton 100 - intital research suggests its quite hard to arrange. Lotus will sell you an "experience" and Club Lotus will train you if you have a Lotus, which I don't. Snetterton, I think is only the full 300, so I'm less interested in 2 thirds of it. And, as with some of the others above, I am interested in the physics and want a book I can dip into while "watching" Strictly over the winter. My plan is I can then get the tutor to refine it rather than waste time on the basics.
I'll enjoy following-up these leads, thanks to all.
