Analysis Techniques for Racecar Data Acquisition

AUTHOR(S):
Jorge Segers  

Data acquisition has become an invaluable tool for establishing racecar - and car/driver - performance. Now that the ability exists to analyze each and every performance parameter for car and driver, accurate use of this data can provide a key advantage on the racetrack. This book provides a thorough overview of the varied methods for analyzing racecar data acquisition system outputs, with a focus on vehicle dynamics.

Topics include:

  • Data analysis software requirements
  • Straight-line acceleration
  • Braking, gearing, and cornering
  • Quantifying roll stiffness distribution
  • Wheel loads and weight transfer
  • Frequencies and shock absorbers
  • Aerodynamics
  • Simulation tools
  • and more

    "This is an important subject and an important book. There is only one other good book on subject and it's out of print and very expensive. I believe [this] book will be widely used by race teams everywhere for a long time. . .You only need this one book to do the analysis job, not several books. Every team needs this book."
    - Bill Milliken
