Default Suspension, Ride & Handling theory 101

For those with an interest in a straight-forward discussion/synopsis of the theory and basic principles of automobile suspension, ride and handling, may I recommend the following web page:

Haven't read the whole thing yet but it looks like a fairly comprehensive threatment.

The article/webpage I cited seemed to me to be a cogent yet "readable" analysis/synopsis of the most relevant suspension issues discussed directly or indirectly throughout this and other tech-related forums (e.g., "bump steer", caster/camber, "roll center", impact of various suspension changes on handling/"real world" performance).

In that respect, may I suggest that it might prove useful for inclusion in the tech archive ?

I may go ahead and put that in there.

I spent time to read most of the article and could understand most of it and found it of a real interest ! It would be good to put it in the technical archives to be able to find it when you need it !!!!
Thanks for the input Troon !!!
