In the Downloads section you will find various files to help with your data analysis and chassis setup; currently there are some basic setup sheets for you to record your notes at the track, an Excel gearing chart, a rake/trail calculator and a thrust chart that can be used to find the optimum shift points based on dyno information. Our pages feature a catalog of useful books as well as a listing of companies providing data acquisition systems and GPS lap timers.
