Perfect Control: A Driver's Step-By-Step Guide to Advanced Car Control Through the Physics of Racing | |
Do you understand the true meaning of driving at the limit?
Learn how to identify and prioritize the different visual, auditory, and tactile car control cues, plus the optimal driver inputs needed to extract %100 from practically any vehicle.
We will also look in-depth at the Universal Cue. The driving cue that directly represents the physics of racing and provides the final layer of car control precision. Learn how world-class drivers use it to self-evaluate and perfect their on track performance.

The previous reviewer is spot on. Reading this book is like walking into a private seminar where experts are finally revealing the true secrets of high-performance driving, in contrast to the vague or even inaccurate 'folk wisdom' many of us have heard from other sources, including other books. Part of me wants these insights to be kept secret so that I can retain an edge, but the authors have been generous in sharing this information for a negligible cost, so I'll do my part in spreading the word about how valuable this book is.
The reason we can trust this information is that it's based on the laws of physics, not just trial and error, intuition, etc. Start with the premise that there's a physical limit to how quickly a given car can be gotten around a given track, and that limit corresponds to an optimal line with optimal driver inputs along that line (the best drivers of course approach this limit). The authors tell us what the optimal line and inputs are for various types of cars in various types of corners, and they tell us *why* those lines and inputs are optimal. I must say that even as an engineer with a strong interest in the physics of driving, understanding the 'why' part isn't always easy, so be prepared to re-read sections of the book and do some high-wattage thinking, but the effort is surely worth it if you have a genuine interest in getting around a track quickly.
I should note that this book should be treated as part of a series, and I suggest reading the first book in the series before this one, since this second book clearly builds on the first book, including answering many questions the inquisitive reader will wonder about after finishing the first book. The third book picks up where this second book leaves off and addresses how to deal with connected series of turns such as double apexes and esses, as well as the proper line through 'bent straights' which are taken flat out.
2nd in a series of 3. This book, along with the first, cut straight to the fundamental points, with little to no filler, which I really appreciate.
It is worth reading some of the articles on the author's website as background as well.
Lots of advanced material... be careful "walking the tightrope" in real life. Expect this will take years to work up to, and at the absolute limit, the speed & consequences of falling off are much higher than if you are simply driving fast.
One thing that I think could be improved, or expanded upon, is the explanation of the "universal cue", and how to develop a sensitivity to that.
Overall, this book, along with the prior one in the series gave me renewed clarity of purpose and a few aha moments.
This is not a book for someone who is new to racing. But for someone who has some experience, has read other race-driving books, and has an interest in the physics behind car control and line theory, this is really a wonderful book. It is not easy reading, but you do not have to be a physics major to understand the concepts. I recommend this book most highly to anyone who is a serious racer.
step by step guide with practice it is very usefull
Slow reading but informative.
