    Hi,

    Great list – i would also recommend taking a look at Inside Speed Machines, an iBook I helped to create with Miles Kelly Publishing using iBooks Author. Its a great little book keeping kids entertained and also educated on all things speed – its only just out on iPad worldwide at £2.99. I am happy to send a copy for review should you be interested?
