I recommend it highly. It is the opposite of glitzy, which puts
the focus where it belongs -- on driving a car in an autocross.
Like another poster, I rank it above Turner's book and put Bob
"then there was the race where I ..." Bondurant at the bottom.
His driver's school must be *much* better than the book.

You wrote that? Nice. Your "beginner" page and that FAQ are
both fantastic. What I find interesting is how much it overlaps
with two pages I wrote
http://www.scri.fsu.edu/~jac/Dixie/first.html
http://www.scri.fsu.edu/~jac/Dixie/faq.html
several years ago. For details, however, nothing can beat the
book Kate Hughes wrote on the subject. IMO that addresses some
of the questions about "what should I do next".
