An absolutely enjoyable book that toes the line between comedy, drama, and racing text book. 

The narration from the point of view of the main characters canine best friend was amazing.

I would recommend this to anyone with an interest in performance driving wether that's road racing, autocross, drag racing, etc.

pageafter_paige's review against another edition

The way the author writes women is uncomfortable to me. The scene with the 15 year old female cousin seemed creepy and irrelevant to book that’s supposed to be from a dogs pov. I thought this was going to be better and more wholesome I guess? Instead the dog hates women but I don’t see how that’s necessary…
