About Racing Chassis and Suspension Design: PT-90

Hand-selected by racing engineer legend Carroll Smith, the 27 SAE Technical Papers in this book focus on the chassis and suspension design of pure racing cars, an area that has traditionally been – farmed out – to independent designers or firms since the early 1970s. Smith believed that any discussion of vehicle dynamics must begin with a basic understanding of the pneumatic tire, the focus of the first chapter. The racing tire connects the racing car to the track surface by only the footprints of its four tires. Through the tires, the driver receives most of the sensory information needed to maintain or regain control of the race car at high force levels. The second chapter, focusing on suspension design, is an introduction to this complex and fascinating subject. Topics covered include chassis stiffness and flexibility, suspension tuning on the cornering of a Winston Cup race car, suspension kinematics, and vehicle dynamics of road racing cars. Chapter 3 addresses the design of the racing chassis design and how aerodynamics affect the chassis, and the final chapter on materials brings out the fact that the modern racing car utilizes carbon construction to the maximum extent allowed by regulations. These technical papers, written between 1971 and 2003, offer what Smith believed to be the best and most practical nuggets of racing chassis and suspension design information. Editorial Carroll Smith passed away before he could complete this, his last SAE book. The SAE Publishing Technology Editor put the finishing touches on the book so that it could be published in honor of the service Carroll Smith made to SAE. An obituary and tribute to Carroll is included in this book.
