I don't know if it's hardcore, but it does have Katz design drawings in it. :)

Ok, starting to go cross-eyed! As before David, please do with these as you wish, I just wanted to toss some stuff out there.

Some of the pics won't show up unless you are logged in. On that subject, the guys that are looking at this thread and wanting more really need to join over there. A few people here have expressed a dislike for the "attitude" at C-C, to that I would say stay out of the General discussion area! By far, that is where the people with an axe to grind predominate. You are doing yourselves a disservice by ignoring the Suspension forum.

millikenresearch.com It is the 900 page racecar dynamics bible, all kinds of software for tires and stuff, lots of in detail research, not bench racing theory:icon996:

I just deleted a lot of old posts and bad links.
We could really use some new links here...
