About this listen

In Send It: The Art & Science of Racing Cars, Rolex at Daytona 24 Hour winner and Two-Time Sebring 12 Hour Winner reveals what the fundamentals of driving race cars are and how we use those to effectively and safely find the limit of any car on any race track.

Author Dion von Moltke, has become the preeminent coach in car racing after he retired from professional racing. He founded Blayze Coaching that has gone on to coach more than 3,000 grassroots racers. Dion amassed a coaching team that includes the likes of two-time IndyCar Champion Josef Newgarden, Two-Time Rolex at Daytona 24 Hour Winner Ricky Taylor, IndyCar Podium Finisher, Oliver Askew, and more.

Dion himself has personally coached more than 1,000 grassroots racers in their innovative 1-on-1 format through the Blayze platform. During his coaching period he developed a unique way of coaching drivers to find the limit of their car that resulted in an average lap time gain of 1.5+ seconds after just one coaching session.

In Send It: The Art & Science of Racing Cars, Dion reveals his entire coaching curriculum and specific three phase approach to working up to the limit.

This book is perfect for the intermediate or advanced grassroots racer. You will learn how to learn a race track, how to find priorities in any corner on any race track, how to use the brakes into any type of corner, an introduction to racecraft, how to drive quickly and safely in the wet, and so much more!

Driving race cars fast is extremely counter-intuitive and filled with lots of complexity. Dion cuts through the noise to simplify the act of learning to drive fast in simple and easy to understand. Not only will this book help you go faster and drive safer, it will help simplify the sport and help you have even more fun out on track!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Need the pdf

Title says it all, you need the pdf for some of this to make sense. If you have been to those tracks and know the corners not so much but for most you would want to have the pdf to make sense of it all.

Loved it but no PDF.

This is a great book on racing. It has a lot a great advice that really cuts to the fundamentals of getting better at racing and understanding the how-to. It would be WAY better if the PDF that is constantly referenced was also available in the app or on the website or had a link to find it. I have searched and I can not find it. Please attach and the review goes to 5/5.
Update as of 3/11/24 still no pdf. Really?

Good info but argumentative

I think the info is great even for an experienced driver. I think it is broken down well though if experienced you need to deal with lots that you already know.

My main criticism is how much time is wasted having an argument with people not involved. The author has to regularly tell you how what other people are teaching is wrong. I don’t get it.

I wish he would have pointed to other things you might have heard and tell us why he thinks his way is better or the reasons behind it.

I really couldn’t care less how wrong he thinks everyone else is. I don’t know if this is to get people to use his coaching network over others or what.

I didn’t find anything in his book to be wrong other than one error in fact that may have been misread or something. (VIR rotates clockwise, opposite of what is stated in the book) I do think there are other ways of thinking about some things and other ideas that are legitimate.

The audiobook does assume a huge knowledge of the corners of US tracks. I don’t know if the print version has track maps. If you are going to listen to the book familiarize yourself with the following first if you don’t know them

Circuit of the Americas turns 11 and 12 (more are mentioned)

Sebring turns 1 and 10-12 and more are mentioned! (This is most important)

Laguna Seca turns 4 and 8

Road America 9,10 which is the carousel and 11 the kink.

He mentions many more in example and if you don’t know the references it doesn’t help you. The ones above are the most mentioned.

Audio book is worthless without the .pdf file

This book frequently refers to a pdf file for images. Where can I get the pdf file? Doesn’t seem to be available. Without being able to see the diagrams Dion refers to I can only imagine what he’s talking about. Make the pdf available and the rating will change.

Good listen

Good listen is all, buy an audio book that relies on PDF references that are not attached. Do not recommend buying the audio book. Maybe the printed copy is better when you can actually reference the documents being referenced
