THE STORY OF TYRE GRIP - 1960's TO THE PRESENT

Over the decades there's been a massive change in Our Understanding of How Grip is Created at the Tyres....

In the 1960s and 70s the race cars all had very soft springs. The Designers thought that's how you make grip at the tyres. The Authors of books on racing and the racing pundits supported this view.

In this breakthrough report, "The Story of Grip", you'll see:

• How wrong thinking around "soft springs making grip" stymied our ability to formulate ideas on set-up over the decades. At the time, we had no idea.
• We need to strip away old "soft spring thinking" and seek a  deeper understanding of how spring stiffness creates grip.
• Learn about the "undamped natural frequency" of the suspension, our measure of suspension stiffness. 
• With Racing Car Technology's procedures we can accurately measure and home in on the likely best suspension frequency for your race car, no matter what the configuation of the suspension.
