Videos on how racecars work - What do you think?

[RacecarScience]

Hi everyone!

I am totally new in this forum. However, I have been professionally involved in Motorsport as an engineer for some years now, and also as a lecturer. I have started to create content on how racecars work, and just posted my first video to youtube:



As I think this community is passionate for motorsport, I would love to count on your opinion. For some it might seem fairly basic stuff, and for some might not, but the idea is to start from very basic principles and build up the complexity and level of detail of the analysis step by step.

I hope you find it interesting and please do not hesitate to let me know your views and/or questions!

Cheers!

Thank you both very much guys! I will post subsequentvideos on this thread and that way we can have them organised in the same place. Concepts will be escalating in ifficulty, but I am quite excited to know your opinions and questions about them!

All the best!

I like the way you present the info both in terms of clarity/ease of understanding but also visually. Good stuff.

Just watched both videos, I always thought it was down to size of drivers bollocks.

Quality videos and I'll be sure to follow the series, if nothing else it'll let me be more convincing when arguing why my car is so slow.

Keep them coming, looking forward to the third one already.

Got a bit lost with the truncating of the rear wheel drive bit. Might have to watch a few times.

Excellent videos but I will have to watch them a few times to get my head round all those figures. Looking forward to the rest of them.
