Hello, I was wondering if anybody knew of any good books or magazine I can get to get familiar with Suspension Systems. Got into it a couple of months and would like to really understand it.

i can't remember what it's called but if you go to the bookstore there's a magazine from europe "automotive engineering" or something; it's full of suspension tech. It gets into a lot of other topics like schools and electronics but you can find some really interesting stuff on engine and suspension development.

It's expensive though so I usually just read it there. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

I've heard good things about "how to make your car handle" not sure what all the book covers.

i'm with Dave, any book by carrol shelby will be good.

EDIT; when i say carrol shelby, i mean carrol smith.
