GPL Set-Up 101: Part 1 (Loooooong)

<snip good stuff>

This is also avaiable at http://www.ozemail.com.au/~gtf1/ along with
several other good articles. "Racing Dampers 201" is useful for a
description of the internals of a modern racing damper and
insideracingtechnology.com has some _*great*- photos of modern
open-wheel suspension systems - the article on CART and IRL
side-by-side at Phoenix shows several Dallara IRL suspension systems.
You'll need to scratch around the other articles to find Champ Car
suspension shots.

The latter site also has a description of how the third spring works -
it's one of the sample articles in the TVM section (you'll need to
find the Champ Car shots for those - third springs aren't used on
ovals and thus IRL). I'm still without a PC able to run GPL so I blew
the dust off an ancient magazine cover cd and ran CPR again. This time
I found it fascinating as I could picture in my mind the layout of the
suspension (the background pic in the garage helped too) and I can
really do a lot with it now.
