  • Chris Forsberg absolutely loves his Datsun 280Z, but could use a few upgrades to make it more fun for the streets. Chris and Jason Fenske from Engineering Explained use this as an opportunity to help explain drift car dynamics (like toe, tensions arms, and the suspension).

      +Engineering Explained Massive props for bridging the gap between the theory and the practice. As a Mechanical Engineer who also drifts, there is sometimes an annoying disconnect between the two and sometimes its difficult to put it in words.

      +Donut Media You have to do more videos with Jason. His explanations with your video editing and visuals was brilliant. Loved it, wached it a couple of times since it has stuff that I can learn and not just cool driving and fooling around. You should really try this format and see if folks like it.

  • @austintanner6749
    @austintanner6749 6 лет назад

    This is my first time trying to understand the science involved in suspension set-ups. I have slowly been learning all of the components of the suspension without knowing exactly what they are all there for. This video summarised the key components pretty clearly. I definitely had to stop the video and rewind multiple times to really grasp everything. Chris and Jason, you killed it in this video, thanks for all of the valuable information even though it was fast paced it still taught me tons.

    FINALY!!! Been waitig for sucha long time to get the science behind drift setups. i´m (emberassingly many) years into my build, and still feel like a scrub. im trying to meet missile with semi compete setup with a very tight budget. having a tighht budget means buying all the top part like wisefab are out of the queestion, so getting know the scince gives me a chance to fabricate. Id LOVE a longer step by step tutorial, on the does and dont in drifting, common misstakes, and unecessary waste of many in parts.

  • @carcrazyafrica

    b) we need to see more of this Z on drift garage too...maybe some challenges against Ryan
    c) nice to see the collabo with Jason, love his channel too
    so all in all this video is all win!

      If camber is kept the same the wheels centerline might be moved out more than the king pin axis. But I can see how they may equally move outward causing no change in scrub radius.
