Description
Aimed at auto racing professionals and the interested general reader, this text uses extensive diagrams and a minimum of technical jargon to describe how a four-tired vehicle generates grip. Topics include, for example, rubber compounding, balance and control, tire testing and development, and suspension geometry. The final chapter is devoted to using tire characteristics to tune a car for more grip and better balance. The volume is co-published with TV-MOTORSPORTS under ISBN 0-9646414-9.
