Former Top Gear Stig, Ben Collins, raced to the top of the book charts with his autobiography, The Man in the White Suit.
Now he is back in the driving seat of his new writing adventure with an illustrated book, How to Drive.
In the book, Ben shares expert skills and wisdom refined over a 20 year career as one of the best drivers in the world – from Le Mans Series racing to NASCAR, to piloting the Batmobile and dodging bullets with James Bond. Ben’s philosophy of anticipation, smoothness and speed, honed over thousands of hours of elite-level performance, is all about giving you greater control, safety and fuel efficiency. This book is about driving better, not faster.
He said: “It only takes a little effort to make a big improvement in your driving, and the benefits last a lifetime. Whether you’ve been behind the wheel for the best part of 30 years or you bought your first L-plate ten seconds ago, this is the stuff your instructor missed, your dad forgot and your mates pretend to know…but don’t. I hope you enjoy the ride.”
How to Drive: The Ultimate Guide is published by Pan Macmillan and is priced £20.
