About the Author:
Driago Olinde was born in Louisiana. He lived in the country for the first three years of his life. When his parents moved him to the city, he was forced to meet new people and make new friends. Driago, an only child and a shy little boy, instead used his creative imagination to give himself hours of entertainment. He started to unleash his creative mind through his writing. With pen and paper, Driago was free to design his own characters, worlds, and stories.

Driago's love of cars, excitement, and adrenaline inspired by video games and street racing films compelled him to begin writing "The Other Side of the Track" in his junior year of high school. He wanted to set a new theme within the racing community. Unfortunately, high school activities and going off to college caused the book to sit on his parent's book shelf.

However, after the death of an actor in his favorite movie series, Driago revisited the book. He decided it was time for readers to enjoy "The Other Side of the Track."
