True my previous race cars had steel wheel carriers....
Whereas I've never seen this as a problem, all the sports cars I know use tapered bolts.
Audi R8, Lambo etc....
Better like this? (the load in the FEM simulation is 20000 N)
Fortal which ? 7075?
I have two friends who are both race engineers, they argue about it, one says great the other says no just not, it tends to crack ?!?
He says aluminum 6061 T6
I am confused....
I use racing suspension joints from Carl ts Hischmann, they are tapered.
On my race car, I have...
I would like to use the VN427 rims from Vintage-Wheels in 15x8 and 15x12 for my MK IV project.
Maybe I can buy turbine wheels at RCR
The car is for track use only.
Unfortunately, there is little space in the front of the wheel house. Therefore I am looking for relatively low, not too wide...
Thanks for your tips!
In the meantime, I have mounting points for an optimized GT40 suspension, incl. modified anti-dive geometry
I also have 3D scans of the C5 control arms.
Unfortunately, both geometries do not match, always something else is wrong :(
Anyway I will play around with it...
Thanks for the quick reply,
it will be a pure racing car, without power steering.
My frame is homemade, are there exact specifications to change the suspension points?
I had planned to construct my own suspension for my project. Unfortunately, my racing engineers friends but so good we never have time, so that I therefore already 5 months with this topic not get ahead.
Therefore, I am currently working with my original plan to use the suspension of the...
Hello, Andrew, If you send me a sketch with all important information, I can trace your roll bar in the CAD and do a FEM analysis. Then you can see how something bends
