Looking for some interesting driving books for the Christmas season. Feel free to suggest a racing technique or other related driving book you found interesting or think looks interesting.

Drive to Win: The Essential Guide to Race Driving by Carrol Smith

I own this book and it is a worthwhile read that goes beyond just driving techniques and is fairly entertaining.


Ultimate Speed Secrets: The Complete Guide to High-Performance and Race Driving by Ross Bentley

Referred by Nicktune in another thread. Looks like an interesting read.


Going Faster! Mastering the Art of Race Driving by Carl Lopez

I have not read this book but it looks interesting. It compiles the viewpoints of several Skip Barber instructors.

Anyone else have driving books they want/have read?
 
One of the best books is Into The Red by Nick Mason. He and a friend (who's a pro driver) race some of his cars around a track. But, and here's the best bit, there's a CD containing engine soundtracks of each of the cars, from start up and pull off, a drive by on the Hanger Straight at Silverstone, and a lap of the Stowe circuit at Silverstone. Pure audio bliss for the petrolhead in us all...

I'm going to subscribe because I'm interested in a few myself.
