..

I've had some success building a "toy" expert system to deal with
INCREDIBLY SIMPLIFIED suspensions by starting with the book:

		 How To Make Your Car Handle
		 Fred Puhn
		 HPBooks; Tucson, AZ

This stuff is not easily modeled in the real world ... I've seen
new bushings and a (same size but) harder steel roll bar make a
.1 g difference on the skidpad. It took Mazda years to understand
the 86 RX7 back end..Mercedes more for their 5 link suspension.
There are some very big computers in Detroit chewing on the problem.

Good luck.
