Has anyone read Senna's "Principle's of Race Car Driving," because I cannot find a copy online less that 80 pounds. Is it worth that much?

I want to buy a book about racecar physics in russian. Can you suggest one? AFAIK the only russian speaking member here is modbaraban, so the question is mainly addressed to him.

RCVD is the real deal. That said, don't start with it.

Actually oriented for planes but works for F1 too, a textbook demo version that explains in details aerodynamics involved in the Full Navier Stokes model.
A reference in the planes aero community but requires a very good maths level and quite a good physics and aero background.

I been looking for this thread for weeks - Every few days someone requests a recommondation on a reference book or article - Lets try to keep this page on the front page indefinitely. Everybody has a library of books and links - Why not add a few of yours each week?

I have a Scribd account with over 150 papers and books mostly pertaining to Aerodynamics in general which should all be free. It is a small portion of the "aerodynamics library" which I developed whilst at Uni.
