Engineer To Win

The Essential Guide to Racing Car Materials Technology or How to Build Winners Which Don't Break

AUTHOR(S): Carroll Smith

Edition: 1

It's no secret that lost races and crashes are caused by what is usually referred to as mechanical failure. But author Carroll Smith rightly contends that all failures are human in origin. Poor designs, incorrect manufacture and assembly, unreasonable demands, and negligent maintenance all lead to the dreaded "mechanical failure."

Engineer To Win details racing materials technology and many other related subjects.
