My new book

I have just published a small book.

Note: everything in it has been either mentioned here or in my videos on YouTube.

The reason I've done it is that it covers, in one easy reference, a lot of techniques that I've developed over the last year that are not in my Veloce aero book.

So it includes:

- using a pitot reference pressure when measuring aero panel pressures (much better than the 'reference tank' approach I previously used)

- the new smoothing circuit for measuring ride height (and so downforce and lift) - cheap, easy and accurate

- the throttle-stop testing of changes in drag (vastly better than coast-downs, but best for cars having mechanical throttles)

There are lots of examples of real-world testing using the techniques with results, graphs, pics, etc.

It's available here.
