For Newbies to the track!!
I found a magazine called "High Performance Driving" at a local bookstore. I wished I had read it before my first DE. It is extremely informative, even after a few DE's under my belt, and includes a DVD. It's around 10 bucks and well worth it in my opinion. I have no affiliation. It covers a great deal of basic stuff...heel/toe, apex, etc. Best of all, it has an RS on the front!
Maybe it will help some guys/gals who are interested in taking their Pcar out for a track day.

I agree, it's pretty decent for the newbie. An Elise owner created it, and there's been a lot of discussion of it over on elisetalk for those interested. I am also unaffiliated.

Well I just saw the cover and lost all respect for the magazine when it read "Alan wilson Q&A - America's #1 Track Designer Reveals His Expert Secrets" ...

Wow mooty...that's awesome! And, your friend did a great job on the magazine. I read it just before I did that sport driving school in Germany. Helped a bunch!
