Ten years ago, BFGoodrich published its Ultimate 4×4 Driving Guide. That manual served as a great base of knowledge for folks seeking off-road advice. Today, BFGoodrich has a new guide, aimed at those looking to go fast on tarmac.
The BFGoodrich Performance Driving Guide, available for free online, offers a wealth of basic go-fast knowledge. And the source behind all of the information is none other than legendary driver coach Ross Bentley.
Bentley is the man behind the excellent Speed Secrets book series. His words of wisdom have guided thousands of hot shoes towards faster lap times and greater car control. Now, he’s teamed up with BFGoodrich to pass a portion of that knowledge on to you.
The BFGoodrich Performance Driving Guide touches on the brand’s history before moving on to chapters dedicated to tire choice and pressure settings, on-track guidance, safety, heel-toe downshifts, over vs understeer, and so much more.
This guide provides an excellent starting point for those looking to go a bit faster. You could then jump to real coaching to go to the next level, but reading this first would have you off on the right foot.
You can read the whole guide for free on BFGoodrich’s website. There are also a handful of printed versions floating around, but word is that those are extremely limited. If you find one of those, be sure to grab it!
Motor1’s Take: Any chance you can take to improve your driving, you have to do. From reading base-level theory and coaching on up to actual on-track guidance, it all serves to make you better behind the wheel. That knowledge translates into a safer experience in everyday driving, not just making you faster on the racetrack.
