Essential reading for beginner and experienced driver alike, it will also interest race team engineers and car enthusiasts who want to peek behind the scenes to learn more about the challenging world of the racing driver. Review: The best book on driving a race car you can buy, and I have all of them - Well, maybe not all of them, but I have most of the biggest ones: the Skip Barber School's "Going Faster", Ross Bentley's "Speed Secrets", and Carroll Smith's "Drive to Win". The crown jewel in my collection is Ayrton Senna's "Principles of Race Driving", which is a pricey but intriguing look into the mind of the great driver. This book, however, tops them all. Krumm covers every aspect of performance driving, from weight transfer to setup, and does it in a way that's clear and easy to understand. Even better, he backs up his instruction with specific examples, citing moments in Formula 1 races that illustrate his teaching points. This allows the reader to see in video what he's talking about in the book. He also covers techniques I hadn't heard of before. One example is how to induce understeer to help deal with a car with severe oversteer. After explaining the technique, he cites a race where Fernando Alonso used that very technique to keep his car under control in a particular corner. This book has gone to the top of my racecar instruction library, and it's hard to think anything else will top it. I wish it was available on Kindle so I could have it as a pocket reference; that's how good it is. If you're trying to learn how to drive a race car better, this book is a must-buy. Review: Great book to improve your track times - I'm just a car guy who loves to drive. I've driven on track a couple of times, and like to go on fun drives when I can find roads that aren't busy with slow drivers. I've done the Mid-Ohio High Performance and Advanced High Performance school days, as well as HPDE and one or two other high-performance driving books, but this one still taught me plenty of new things, which I even put to use in my racing simulator/rig (mainly Gran Turismo Sport). Even if you don't drive on-track, it's still an interesting read if you're a driving enthusiast. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,159,724 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,107 in Motor Sports (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 88 Reviews | ## Images ![Driving On The Edge: The Art and Science of Race Driving - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81wNEDrOZIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best book on driving a race car you can buy, and I have all of them *by L***Z on December 12, 2013* Well, maybe not all of them, but I have most of the biggest ones: the Skip Barber School's "Going Faster", Ross Bentley's "Speed Secrets", and Carroll Smith's "Drive to Win".

I've driven on track a couple of times, and like to go on fun drives when I can find roads that aren't busy with slow drivers. I've done the Mid-Ohio High Performance and Advanced High Performance school days, as well as HPDE and one or two other high-performance driving books, but this one still taught me plenty of new things, which I even put to use in my racing simulator/rig (mainly Gran Turismo Sport). Even if you don't drive on-track, it's still an interesting read if you're a driving enthusiast. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best new book on race car driving and setup *by D***L on September 30, 2013* I have read many books on driving techniques, and put much of the info from those to good use on the track. And out comes a new, up to date book on driving. I found Michael Krumm's book on the subject to be one of the best. It is thoroughly modern, relates performance to both technique and data acquisition, and is very well written. Highly recommended, and it should be on the shelf of any serious racer or track driver. His success on the track in various cars, including winning the FIA GT1 championship in a racing GT-R, gives him true credentials. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/31745522-driving-on-the-edge-the-art-and-science-of-race](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/31745522-driving-on-the-edge-the-art-and-science-of-race) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
