Ross Bentley releases his free eBook today, Brake, Brake, BRAKE: The HPDE Instructor Manifesto for the benefit of driver training instructors everywhere!
Ross’s Speed Secrets series books have sold more than 80,000 copies; they’ve helped legions of performance and racing drivers be better at their craft. The bestselling author says, "HPDE instructors are responsible for helping new people join our sport. The first and lasting impression they leave on students makes all the difference in the world. Instructors determine whether the student ever comes back to the track, and how far they progress, and sometimes whether they become skilled racers. I appreciate what they do so much that I’ve decided to put my three decades of experience together in a downloadable eBook and give it away for free as a way of saying thank you.
