tanx..

 

Try a search first, we had a post on this a few months ago. If that doesn't work (many were archived away) I have a list somewhere I can dig up.

I'm currently digging through Milliken & Milliken Race Car Vehicle Dynamics which is considered they bible by many for mechanical development.

 

Or any of the series by Carroll Smith:
Drive to Win
Engineer to Win
Tune to Win
Prepare to Win
Carroll Smith's Nuts, Bolts and Fasteners and Plumbing Handbook

Might be others, not sure.

 

nah the search gives nothing..

i'll look for theese ..
