Suspension Setup / Tuning
 
I am thinking about returning to RC racing. I ran a lot back in the late '80s in pan car oval and some 12th scale road course. Both of these were on carpet. I have shelf full of really obsolete gear but I guess all the tools would still be useful. But, I digress.

I need to find a resource, either book or online, on rc car handling that I can use to refresh my memory on the terms [droop?] and what affects what. I did some goggling and didn't find much. What I did find was either too basic or to dirt-oriented [tried dirt back in the day and didn't like it]. Anybody got some suggestions or links?

Thanks, guys! That is just what I was looking for. I found one of them after some more searching but not the other two. Now for some reading...
