Although hillclimb and sprint cars are the focal topic, a lot of the book is applicable to race cars in general. The cars under discussion in the book are powered by motorcycle engines, which are meeting with great success in the smaller racing car classes. The total process of building a car is described, beginning with the selection and procurement of the engine. Chassis and suspension design is covered in a simplistic but adequate manner as the author's aim is to minimize the inclusion of involved calculations. Two recipes for chassis construction are illustrated in detail, along with guidance on the processes of construction and a description of the required equipment. Following on from this, the fabrication of the suspension is explained. Further chapters are dedicated to the remaining aspects of the vehicle, covering transmission, brakes, fuel and coolant systems, and electrics.

It covers both theory and practice, and includes the step by step fitting of a custom air suspension system. If you want the best ride and handling for your road car, this is a must-read book. A step-by-step guide to DIY air suspension for your road car. Manufactures like Mercedes, Tesla, Audi and Cadillac choose air suspension because they can achieve the highest quality in ride and handling, but until now, there has not been a book that shows you how to get the best from after-market air suspension for your road car. This book covers both theory and practice - from the technical advantages of air suspension through to detailed coverage of the development, installation and tuning of a custom air suspension system. It looks at wiring and plumbing, covers a brilliant new low cost electronic air suspension controller, and even shows how to source low-cost components from cars original sold with air suspension. Want to buy an air suspension kit off the shelf? That is covered as well, with the six key questions to ask before buying. - CarSport. If you have a car with air suspension that needs refurbishing or you fancy installing it, then this new book by Julian Edgar, published by Veloce, will guide you through the complete process in an easy-to-follow step-by-step format. The book covers both theory and practice discussing the technological advantages of riding on air through to its development and place in history. Edgar guides you through tuning, plumbing and costs of a system. Off-the-shelf kits are also covered, covering the major points you need to consider such as whether you just want to improve the quality of your ride, have the ability to raise and lower your car on demand or anything else, this book will help. - tkc. Julian Edgar points out in this book, another in Veloce's popular 'SpeedPro' series, air, as opposed to coil springing, is a suspension medium used by current top-end manufacturer such as BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Rolls-Royce and many others and has many advantages. They include easy maintenance of ride height irrespective of load, rising rate suspension that remains liberal over most if its travel, plus the ability to change both ride height and spring rate with cockpit control. An explanation of how the basic systems work and their variations is followed by a full description of the hardware, both mechanical and electronic, involved, enabling the reader (provided he has the requisite engineering ability) to carry out such work, even by using salvaged air suspension components which are apparently obtainable quite cheaply and often suitable for re-use. The Australian author has written 18 previous books covering a range of automotive DIY topics and is a hands-on modifier who performs all work on his car himself in an extensively equipped home workshop. He ends the book with a full description of how he successfully converted his own Honda Insight to air suspension. While this may not be a task that will be seriously contemplated by the average home mechanic, the author assures the reader that it's entirely possible and for anyone wishing to take the plunge, this book gives a good grounding in theory and practice of converting a car to air suspension. - Speedscene. The author seems to understand what is required; he pitches it well, assuming a degree of understanding on the part of the reader, without assuming that we all have a Masters in pneumatics and fluid dynamics from Oxford. It's a good, informative read, well illustrated and with some simple diagrams and some less-than-simple graphs. If you have a clue already, this title will help you along nicely. – Street Machine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* About the author * Introduction * Further reading * Chapter 1 - Benefits of air Suspension * Chapter 2 - Air spring designs * Chapter 3 - Air suspension systems * Chapter 4 - Selecting air springs * Chapter 5 - Using salvaged air suspension components * Chapter 6 - Wiring air suspension systems * Chapter 7 - The eLabtronics Air Suspension Controller * Chapter 8 - Air suspension natural frequencies * Chapter 9 - Tuning air suspension * Chapter 10 - Fitting a car with custom air suspension * Chapter 11 - Air suspension hints and tips * Chapter 12 - Selecting an air suspension kit * Index","brand":"David \u0026 Charles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48741507268951,"sku":"9781787111790","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781787111790.jpg?v=1720057801"},{"product_id":"how-to-restore-improve-classic-car-suspension-steering-wheels-9781787111875","title":"How to Restore \u0026 Improve Classic Car Suspension,","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive manual provides professional but easy-to-follow know-how on how to restore, improve and maintain your classic car's suspension, steering and wheels.
