Roll Center design theory

[wally8]

Thanks for the input Wendell.

As I expected my dirt experience is only good for the fundamentals.

I thought about 2" as a baseline also since that's the recommendation for an asphalt modified but I was worried that it might venture below ground dynamically. I don't think that sort of migration would be any good (+ to -).

My thoughts on AI are that it's a fairly similar app to what I'm shooting for although my wheelbase is probably longer.

I might try tuning it down to 2.5" and see what I get from there. My CG should be a little lower than stock since the car will be lowered but I'll have a big ol' steel headed big block in there so my F/R balance is not going to be good.



Sounds like we're designing along similar lines though.

Let me know what you find out, if anything.
