Re: Chassis Torsional Stiffness

Holy Crap !

You guy's were busy last night !!!

Mark ... I completely agree.

Randy ... On a kart or a top fuel dragster, the frame IS the suspention. I would never discount anybody's ride as "Garbage". Dirt track cars are brutally fast and fun to watch, but we are speaking about Road Race cars and their particulars on this thread. I don't need aviation trivia, I live it every day.

Lambo ... I will definately read that article, thank you.

Russ ... A gentleman as always.

Ron ... I always enjoy when you participate.

I did not start this thread for it to end up with everybody pissed.

After re-reading this thread from the begining though it does seem that it is a topic as Ron said won't boring.

I am convinced now more than ever that the figures can be accurately measured, standardized and compared and posted, if mfg's wanted to, but they don't.

Except Bailey Edwards.

Thats a damn shame because some chassis are probably Very light and stiff and others are probably not. Some guy's probably don't care about the numbers, they just wan't the cool factor. I KNOW the cars are Bitchin', but I want the science too. Too bad because transparency with the customer should be paramount.

Best to all, you guy's are great,
Scott
