Description

Let's dispel the myth that becoming a racing driver is an unachievable dream. Although not cheap, it is certainly an accessible hobby or career path. As well as guiding the reader through the early processes of becoming a racing driver, from karting through to car racing, the book also focusses on how to make the most of track time, how to utilise instruction, and the importance of using professional race simulator centres. The author also shares some inside information relating to media skills, such as how to deal with the motorsport press, and how to use social media to your advantage. The experience she has gathered during her motorsport career has formed the basis for this book, drawing on her motorsport journalist work, writing for various publications and online media outlets, as well as working for a track day company, various motor racing clubs and organisations, and running her own motorsport PR agency.
