I have that book. I found it too dry. Only got about half way through it and never finished.

^ I think the hype around the book killed a bit of the joy for me. I loved the references to racing and how the author melded that with how one can live their life. I'd rate the book 3.5/5. Definitely worth a read and a re-read of specific chapters.

It got a wee bit sentimental for me but it pays homage to the Senna over and over again which I loved

^ oh! and they are making a movie about it with Patrick Dempsey. I hope the movie turns out good and has a lot of racing footage.

Coincidentally I read the book on what would have been Senna's 50th birthday.

I ordered this for the VFR. The guys on VFRD say you throw away the u-bolt and the holes in the mount line up with the forward gas tank bolts.
