    Pete M's racing Bio:

    I was race engineer in UK National Formula Vee Championship in 1977, '78 and
    '79. Podium in every race in 1979.

    Then in BRDC Esso Formula Ford Championship 1980 and part of '81. Couple of
    heat wins, 1 race win. Some Brazilian kid by the name of A. Senna da Silva
    started winning everything after that...

    Engineered a Lancia HF Turbo in the 1985 Willhire 24 hour race. Only turbo
    car to finish.

    Team owner/engineer for 1988 and 1989 Ford P100 Challenge - began as "just
    for fun" in 1988, won it in 1989.

    Entry level stuff and a long tome ago, but great learning curve and amazing
    fun.

    Pete, Peter and Joe will be serving as a "panel" to answer your suspension questions. If you want a more thorough answer, be sure to forward it to me in advance so that the guys have some time to research if necessary.
