I love that you are still writing. I've been a fan of AutoSpeed from the start and still reference it. Tech has moved on a bit, but I thoroughly enjoyed the jaycar kits you developed
Mr.Edger I really loved your videos I wish I had the money to buy your books I'm in Yemen it is hard to get the money and harder to buy something online I wish you can do more videos in the world of f1 cars mechanics . Wish you the best .
I found your channel recently and I find it very interesting. I've noticed you have also done some work on bicycles/recumbents. I would like to make a velomobil for myself, as an all-weather replacement for bicycle. I need to learn a lot about aerodynamics, and a little more about drive comfort (suspension). Could you recommend any books that would be fitting for such usecase? (Achieving low drag, without lift or downforce, with peak efficiency at "low" speeds compared to cars - max 60km/h, form drag vs. skin friction, simple efficient suspension,... ) Most info I find on aerodynamics the goal is downforce (automotive) or lift (airplanes) and not low drag by itself. If you could point me in right direction I would really appreciate it.
Two of my books would help on the aero. 'Modifying the Aerodynamics of Your Road Car' has major sections on reducing drag, and 'Aerodynamic Testing for Road and Track - 2nd ed' has detailed techniques on making measurements that will help you lower drag. The speeds don't matter. On suspension, my book 'DIY Suspension Development' has a major section on developing an HPV suspension.
Would buy them if they were in kindle formats, just that having to carry around a bunch of books that might be heavy would get old quickly for me. It’s just that I live in two house.
