Cheers mate, but Ive had this website for ages now, and even printed it all off into a book trying to digest it all!!
Its this that got me thinking about the pistons.

Its still a bit dutch to me (and seems completely the opposite of what Schumacher say in the SX3 manual in places - eg. see the section on upper shock mount positions).

I can understand the mathematics involved of the differences between laminar and turbulent fluid dynamics, and all the functions to work out the forces involved, but it is translating that to what I will see and "feel" on the track that is confusing me.
