    This is really good stuff. Steering/suspension geometry is one of the hardest things for me to understand conceptually as someone with no real practical automotive or engineering experience, just an interest. I'd love to build a little sports car like your own someday, it seems so cost effective for the amount of thrill you get.

    After all of the money you spend in custom parts the most cost effective option is a used Miata. Expect to spend at least $20,000.

    Just check miata forums, craigslist and autotrader. A miata with aftermarket suspension parts and wide wheels/tires can be had for $5k on up. The most economic, reliable fun you can have on four wheels. If you can DIY even replacement engines and trans are dirt cheap.

Your explanation is so clear and simple that a beginner can understand, and your understanding and fluency is so good even going into advanced concepts. I'm not even gonna start talking about the great animation and the amount of work and dedication you put in that, but man that's a master piece. I'd like to thank you on behalf of the world!

Now I finally get what the KPI angle is and how it relates to caster. I am new to tracking my RS and I want to understand what is being done regarding suspension adjustments. You cannot sort out your cars suspension without a comprehensive working knowledge of this stuff. Thanks for putting in the time to educate me in this area. Finally I see !! An epiphany :) Much thanks. I will now move on to Part 2. Cheers. Oh yeah - new sub :)

Few people really understood more than a few basics, lots of tall tales and the rest was "Magic" that sometimes worked and other times got you in deep trouble. Looking forward to watching the next video, thanks for all the hard work you put into them.

    Great work. Very clear. I definitely learned much from this vid. This is the best explanation of suspension that I've seen. I'm not stupid but I have struggled with some of these concepts in the past and watching this I realized it's because in the past I was presented with the intended result of a particular modification, but not "why" or "how". You nailed it. Don't worry about the length; I appreciate that you're not "dumbing it down" .Complex topics take time. I'm happy that I've found someone who understands it to this level... AND has the ability to communicate it. Thanks so much for the quality content. Looking forward to watching all your videos. How did you become so knowledgeable about suspension ?
