Engineer To Win

 

Things seem to be fixed with the JDM Insider site for now. Moving on: A lot of people ask me, “What book should I read to learn about this or that?” One book I highly recommend is Carroll Smith’s Engineer To Win. The book teaches the basic principles of building race cars, but it applies to just about anything mechanical. Mr. Smith writes it in a way that makes it fun and interesting to read. I bought this book about 10 years ago, but I pick it up once in a while for a quick read here and there. It’s like a refresher course. Whether you are putting a turbo on your car, assembling a suspension, or fabricating something, Engineer To Win covers the topic. For even further reading, Mr. Smith wrote an entire series: Tune To Win which covers suspension and chassis tuning in detail and Drive To Win (figure this one out yourself).
