I know you mentioned practice and lots of it, but how in the hell did you learn about all the geometry involved? I plan to go to WyoTech next year to take chassis fab along with alomst everything else involved, but I am curious if you had any sources to learn what is involved with frame geometry?

Thanks

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
