of NASCAR Nextel Cup racing, knowledge and experience are held
tightly and rarely revealed. Until now.

These elements include: Setting up a shop and establishing a crew;
safety systems; stringing your race car; understanding camber,
caster, and kingpin angle; tuning with springs, shocks, and sway
bars; understanding wheelbase, track, toe, and ackerman;
understanding ride height, weight, and cross weight; chassis
geometry; finding the right setup and preparing your car for the
track; brakes; aerodynamics; gears and gear selection; and testing.
Then Larry takes you to the next level in finely tuned chapters that
concentrate on racecraft with tips for qualifying, developing race
strategies, and diagnosing and solving a myriad of problems during a
race, particularly those with handling. Larry even provides
recommendations for post-race checks and efficient weekly
maintenance.
