This is not a Book, it a long ad for the required software,
By JW (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stock Car Setup Secrets HP1401 (Paperback)
This book is basically just a long winded ad for the expensive software. They should have just made this book cost $150 and included the software. Or they could have added $20 to the cost of the software and just given this book out as the user manual. Costantly the book explains a setup that requires the software to take advantage of. Don't buy this book unless your prepared to invest the additional monies into the chasis setup software.

Fairly good book on setups,
This review is from: Stock Car Setup Secrets HP1401 (Paperback)
Easy to follow and understand book on stock car setups. I am new at this stuff and this book cleared up a lot of questions. The book is not overly technical and the author throws in lots of tid bits to keep you from getting bored.

Reading about racing set up should only be food for thought.,

This review is from: Stock Car Setup Secrets HP1401 (Paperback)
If you cannot get anything from this book then you will need to study many more basic racing set up books to get the knowledge you need. Writers of racing set up books have to say that certain things are so or they would have no credibility. I look at all of these books a different way. If i can get one tidbit of information or an idea that I can expand on then the book is work it. Never believe everything you read about race cars. Study it, test it, and repeat. I am sorry there is not a magic setup book out there that will win races for you.
This book is advance thinking and an advanced method of setting up race cars.
