Fit to participate in the Pan-PRD race modified multi-link rear suspension

Guangzhou Honda Fit original suspension is torsion beam type, this suspension there making maintenance simple, low cost and by all economic models favored. But it also has a non-independent suspension innate shortcomings, when changes in the side of the wheel movement (encounter bump) will affect the other side, the rear-wheel angle available for tuning, special occasions (such as racing), often flexibility in turning the above disadvantage. So, Guangzhou KY Racing Serene produces a modified rear suspension ideas to improve steering performance, is here to create the best lap decisive.

Figure: If alone, such a picture guess car, I could not be able to properly say.

First, they found a length Fit body width is almost the same sub-frame, the rear suspension of most of the rod member wherein the one articulation point is mounted on the subframe, since the role of a bridge between the suspension rods and the body things, but the fixing of this "bridge" is itself a very test the knowledge of the person, the hand level of processing technology, it is estimated that in this process the shape of the sub-frame has been modified, its four fixing points can be "posted" body convenient tapping next to the body.

With this basis of the above, then we must determine the position after claw. From the current shape of the shock machine guess the Serene is shock machine to accommodate croissants, so it was welded on an adapter seat. Similarly accommodate the claw under vertical putter, it is also an adapter. Eventually, two transverse links, a vertical putter, a shock absorber unit became Fit rear suspension. From a formal point of view, this is the multi-link suspension, so that, including the tilt angle of the rear wheels, the beam angle adjustable function etc., an introvert rear wheel tires can help in the corners for more touchdown area, increase the centripetal force, under the premise of the other conditions remain unchanged, cornering speed can be raised even higher, out of the corners, the greater the initial velocity, which decide the outcome.

Before, Fit to create 1:58 the fastest lap with a Track Day tires. Now, after flying the dual role of qualitative change + slicks, and stood the ideal theoretical angle Fit is expected to move forward about 4 seconds, which is a comparable Honda Integra type cells (DC) results. Of course, this is just a nice wish, even the master of Serene not guarantee what the strength of how the outcome this weekend!

Figure: the rear sub-frame plays the role of a bridge, connecting the suspension rods and the body, the suspension can be seen from this figure there is a plurality of angles can be adjusted.
