Racing Physics: Class #8. Ladder Bar vs 4-Link Suspension

In this episode of Racing Physics, I describe some of the differences between a ladder bar rear suspension versus a 4-link rear suspension and how differently they react in the chassis of a drag car upon launch.
The information provided here is right out of Dave Morgan's book "Door Slammers: The Chassis Book. This book has insight on how to construct and tune the suspension on your own race car.
