5.0 out of 5 stars Secrets unlocked, November 6, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Inner Speed Secrets: Mental Strategies to Maximize Your Racing Performance (Paperback)
What a revelation! We have been told for years that our mind harnesses the power to overcome all. In Ross and Ronn's book, these principles are succinctly laid out with techniques and exercises directly related to race driving. I recognized many situations in my own racing and have used their exercises to improve my performance and confidence on the race track. This book is a must read for anyone in racing (or in life)who wants to ensure consistency. For those who think racing is all guts - you are missing the boat (or shall I say the checkered flag) by not reading this book! PS - They also have a wonderful seminar too!

By Don Kitch Jr. (Bellevue, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Inner Speed Secrets: Mental Strategies to Maximize Your Racing Performance (Paperback)
Race car drivers can be, and must be continually developed beyond the capabilities of their car. Inner Speed Secrets clearly explains the mental engineering of today's winning drivers. If you are serious about your racing---this book is a must. Don Kitch Jr. Chief Instructor ProFormance Racing School Seattle International Raceway

5.0 out of 5 stars It's All Mental: What separates Good Drivers from Great Ones, September 30, 2004
This review is from: Inner Speed Secrets: Mental Strategies to Maximize Your Racing Performance (Paperback)
In the olympics, studies have shown that those who practice mentally (visualization, psychology, self-talk, etc) as well as physically (actual physical training) do better than those who just grind it out on the training field.

In a sport where there is a fusion of man and machine, it is even more important to "Maximize Your Racine Performance" by adhering to the strategies such as what Ross Bentley has outlined.

If you're a driver who has reached a plataeu and can't seem to improve, there's a great likelihood that it's not more practice or track time that's needed -- but more mental practice. And that's cheaper, too!

Ross outlines great mental techniques in this book that are easy to follow, and very applicable to the sport of race car driving.

For a bigger picture on Mental Training, I urge to to also look at Ken Baum's The Mental Edge. Then make sure you have this book by Ross to have mental training specific to race car driving.

Highly Recommended!
