racing books???

hi, I'm trying to get my hands on a decent racing book however everything on the internet seems to be old and out of date.

I want a technical book that focuses on chassis setup, engineering, and driving, preferably based on junior formula slicks n' wing racing like formula renault or F3...

Anyone have any suggestions on a good book and where to get it???
I know skip barber released a book about 1 year ago called "going faster" does anybody know if its any good.

Thank-you...
Mr Ringo

i have Going Faster, i definatly recommend it.
It covers just about everything but mostly concentrates on the driving and the technical issues of driving etc. For a more detailed look at setup and stuff you probably want another book, i heard books by Caroll Smith were good.
Going Faster is a good start though.
