 General Info about Indy Racing |
| Review Date: July 11, 2006 |
| Reviewer: Fahad Al Harbi, Saudi Arabia |
I thought this DVD was about racing learning like the Speed Secrets Books, but it's just a video of general info about Indy Racing. This is like one of the TV programs that we see about any type of racing, such as Indy, NASCAR, and F1.
It just talks about the general information about the race class, from the technology of car build up, engine, tires, aero dynamics, the only thing I think important for racing learners was the brief clips and info about drivers and driving, other than that as I said, it's just a general info, and it's not related to race learning, anyone with just small interest in racing would know all of that in the video.
I am really disappointed and I think I was fooled by this video. This DVD should be free with a Speed Secrets Book package.
This Video should include a 60 minutes of driving technique.
For racing learning, I'd recommend Skip Barber DVD, the only downside for it, that it was made in 1986, it's old but very good for drivers that want to race.

Reality check

| This is quite possibly the worst video reference on racing and going fast every created. While most of the information presented by those interviewed is accurate, there are a lot of opinions tossed around as fact and never backed up. You can excuse a race driver for this, but not a film producer. To make matters worse, the voice over commentary is simply wrong and incorrect throughout the entire film. In fact, there are several instances of the commentator directly contradicting those being interviewed, while offering their comments as evidence to back his blatantly absurd claims. If it weren't for the serious tone I'd think this was a joke. The producer has obviously never gone fast. Hell, he likely has never driven. The commentator is equally clueless, or hard up for a job and just doesn't care about getting things right. If I could unwatch this video, I would. |
