The level of explanation is high school physics. It doesn't require high school physics - this book really teaches a fair amount of what is covered in high school physics. Well, I graduated from high school close to 50 years ago, so my judgment here is not really to be trusted! On the other hand, I went on to a Masters degree in physics, so its not groundless, either! The various explanations here are all pretty reasonable. I guess my biggest complaint would be that the book is pretty haphazard. For sure it's all NASCAR. But it's a bit like shooting a shotgun at the side of a barn. The book goes into quite a bit of detail about paint. Sure, racing cars get painted. Anyway, the book would have been better if it had more focus. Sometimes less is more. I wanted to learn about tires. A book about shock absorbers could work pretty well! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
