Im trying to learn alot about performance so that i can get a job working with performance. Does anybody know of any good books that really teach performance.

 

What kind of performance?

 

engine performance like drag racing

 

There aren't a lot of books that will teach you what you need to know. A lot of that stuff you need to learn hands on. I'd suggest taking some general auto repair courses at a junior college to get you started. In order to make something fast it has to run properly first.

 

has anybody heard of somebody buying this and if so is it worth the money http://www.jegs.com/i/Power-Building...ductId=1330575

 

The description is interesting, at least.

Unfortunately it's not an industry that's going to give you brownie points for watching TV or reading books on your own, though.

 

yeah i know what you mean and i was thinking the same thing but it might be cool to have all that stuff explained by a professional
