This review is from: Stock Car Racing Engine TechnologyHP1506: Advanced Engine Theory and Design for All Levels of Circle Track Racing (Paperback)
Being a gearhead/racer myself, this book is great. The guys at Circle Track have 'been there and done that' you can say from all their experience in the motorsports world. A strong recommendation for the beginner, but a great read for anyone! This book will stay in my library for a very long time.

This review is from: Stock Car Racing Engine TechnologyHP1506: Advanced Engine Theory and Design for All Levels of Circle Track Racing (Paperback)
I knew nothing about this book when I ordered it and was very pleasantly surprised. This turned out to be much better than I expected. I was very impressed with the content and presentation in this book. This book discusses theories of putting together the right combination of parts for an effective racing engine, with lots of insider information from the pros. I would recommend this for any engine builder.
