Would a couple of the LC books interest them? (I would be willing to purchase one of Keiths for that purpose, along with the Gibbs one) Along with a copy of Competition Car Suspension: Design, Construction, Tuning by Allen Staniforth (Author), since I have two. Was going to sell the spare, but if you think they would use it then they would be welcome to it.

I think that they would love the books on Locost construction. You could mail them directly to the shop if you like. I am sure once they see how one is constructed maybe one of the guys will be willing to tackle one.

One of the Automotivation guys told me he was very interested in chassis and suspension design and wanted to get some books on the subject. I have been searching for some suspension design software to send him but haven't found it yet (hard to find anything now,since we're in the middle of a home remodel process).

 

I'm sure they'll be very grateful for the books.

I'll send them out this week, along with any others that I have that are not being used. Heheh some I have purchased are a bit over my poor truck driving brains education level (who knew they would actually want higher level math skills for building a car......). These fat books may do them more good than me, though I will have to find something else to balance my workbench.

Heh, I am dense. Shop, thought you meant the Automotivation shop, just realized you meant yours. Here is the list so far, any others needed while I am in a book buying mood? Got a gift card, use it on a worthy cause, though Hot Chicks on bikes could be considered worthy too.
