Beckman's physics of racing

Because cars don’t have CG’s 1000 ft off the ground?

I understand your point but the distance from the CG to the spindle in the vertical direction is insignificant compared to the distance from the cg to the spindle in the horizontal direction.

It does make a difference but it is insignificant for the purposes of this discussion.

Cg is usually within a few inches of the spindle, where as the wheelbase is 100 inches or so.

So basically your saying that the information shared by Dr. Beckman is correct even if you think it is insignificant.

That’s a big step from this

I only read the first part, but there are some GLARING errors there. Enough that i would probably find somebody else to quote.

This stuff is REALLY basic. If he can’t explain braking weight transfer its pretty much all over right there.
