In summary, roll centers and rear suspension play crucial roles in racing, as they directly affect the handling and performance of a vehicle. Roll centers determine the distribution of weight and forces on a car's wheels, while rear suspension helps maintain control and stability during turns and acceleration. Properly adjusting these components can greatly improve a car's overall performance and increase its chances of winning in racing competitions.

I stumbled upon this forum while late night surfing.
The roll center discussion and rear suspension info is just what I was seeking.
I'm a marine mechanic by trade.
Mostly I like reading and listening to racing setup theory you never stop learning or the racing world will pass you by.
