Dj2 Motorsports Intro Video

bjbj Hi, I m Dan with DJ2 Motorsports. Inside this video I want to give you an introduction of what you have to look forward to in our Control the Roll video series. No matter what type of car or truck that you re driving, or building, or racing, the chassis under it and it s setup needs to be well understood to be able to maximize its capabilities to make it as fast as possible. Our goal with these videos is to give you some practical useful information to take and apply to your chassis setup whatever it may be. We may not meet your exact specifications for whatever you are building or driving, but hopefully you ll learn enough and take enough of this information and apply it to your circumstances that you have and get you at least headed in the right direction. Some of the advantages of that will be that you can alleviate some of the frustration from countless hours of testing, try to save you some money on fuel and tires because of all of the testing, get those bragging rights because you know what your setup s doing now and you ll be able to beat your buddies out there, friends, whatever. And, also be able to ask some intelligent questions to the people that are in your specific circumstance, so you can at least gather some more information and be able to tell if the information that they are giving you is accurate or not. Now some of the topics that we are going to plan on covering, and not all of these may apply to you, and we may have more coming down the road, but I ve got a list, and you ll have to excuse that I have paper because I want to make sure that we don t miss anything but we re going to cover basic suspension definitions, how force and torque effect cornering, how your control arms effect camber angles as the suspension moves, how to find your roll center, ways to find your center of gravity, camber, toe, caster, springs, spring rate, wheel rate, and your shocks. Tire temperature reading, and what it will help to tell you about your setup. Weight distribution, we ll cover some of that. The definition of sprung and unsprung weight, because I know that there is a lot of questions about what that is. Bump steer and Ackerman, anti-squat, and that will be coming in handy for a lot of you drag racers out there because that has a lot to do with anti-squat. Brakes and brake bias, sway bars, panhard bars, 3-link and 4-link torque arm suspensions, chassis and frame design and ways to stiffen it and strengthen it, and we ll see where things go from there. Now, you want to make sure that you leave comments so we kind of have an idea of what everybody s looking at and what you want more information for, and we ll get that researched if we don t know it and we ll get that posted also. I also want to give a special thanks to Summit Racing, they have been able to provide us with us with some suspension parts to be able to do our little mock up suspension that we ll be working on later to show camber angles and all that so make sure you check them out for all your parts and all your needs.
