A Note to the fans

From Andy (The Founder)

Red Racer Books is my way of capturing all that motorsports has to offer for kids – it's a fantastic platform to engage, inspire, and educate. My books are designed to be fun for kids and enjoyable for both children and parents. We aim to do more than entertain; we inspire kids to explore STEM fields and to see themselves in various roles within motorsports because seeing is the first step to believing.
