It's a real collectors item, not easy to find! I had a quick look through the book once years ago at a race in Shah-Alam. Can't remember who the kid was that had it. :banghead:

:sign5: Just checked amazon... it really IS a collectors item!
4 used & new available from $350.00

The other three prices are $650.00, $700.00, and $790.75. How badly do you want it? 8)

Guess I ruined any chance of you getting a good price on it huh? :study:

Just stick Ayrton Senna into a search engine with Principles of Race Driving. I've seen many on Amazon, but can't understand why it has such a high value. I bought the Hardback for £14.99 & it's a good read, but it isn't useful unless you're wanting to learn about Race Driving. I guess if it's just one for the shelf, then I wouldn't worry too much, as the cost of a Book now seems ridiculous. Helped me when beginning in Karts & even picking it up about 15 years later, I'm sure there's something to catch up on. Good Luck with your search, but I wouldn't go overboard on spending too much money. I was just surprised how sought after it has become.
