Anyone read "How To Make Your Car Handle" by Fred Puhn? I'd like to learn more about the relationship of the different aspects of my track car (relation of spring rates to shock rebound settings to AR settings, etc).
Anyone have any recommended readings? Thanks, Bill P. |

Kevin,
You recommend that book? I was thinking about buying it just the other day. It's worth it? |

QUOTE Several times I have looked into Race Car engineering classes in Europe. Cant bring myself to move to the UK..LOL No need to travel to Europe there are courses you could take at home in SoCal. Claude Roulle offers classes here: http://www.optimumg.com/. Although from the curriculum it appears that most of the focus is on data Acquisition so it isn't really geared towards the average club guy, and it's pretty damn expensive. Other books: Tune to Win, Carrol Smith Competition Car Suspension |
