Hi
I am looking for a copy of the suspension design software written by the late George Mitchell...titled WinGeo3. Apparently it is no longer on the market. Have a copy you'd like to sell? Duane Carling 801 725 7664 www.mustangirs.com ctm913@hotmail.com THANKS

Looks like a LARGE ash tray to me. Remember when everyone smoked everywhere ??

Hi Guys
Thanks for flipping the pic. It's supposed to look that way unless you are in a ditch. By the way, a good caption for that pic is "SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION" Da VINCI

By the way, I have 3 or 4 Jag center sections from various years and Jag aluminum hub carriers I'd like to get out of the garage. They were part of the transition from the Dana 44 used in the original IRS back in '65...to the current Ford 9 inch. Make me an offer.

Hi
The IRS I sell uses the Ford 9 inch. The original back in65 used the Dana44 Jag. You could make a jag work, and save about 3,000 if you had one laying around. By the way, I have several from various years I'd like to sell. Duane. 801 725 7664

Hi
Glad you liked it. As Cris Campbell Hot Rod editor said after back to back drives in a 66 Mustang "This is the one thing you can do that makes most difference in how these cars handle." That's probably a paraphrase, but it's been awhile. Incidently Cris was going to install a T-5 in his '67 Ranchero until he got "down sized" from HRM.

HI
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, everything in suspension design IS a compromise. The only proof is in the driving. Porsche & Mercedes paid Ford a license to use the anti-squat / steering feature for years. They finally figured out how to add a 5th bar to get around the patent. It all really works, as Gurney said about the GT-40 at LeMans, "It's really easy to go fast in this thing."

Hi
I make the IRS FORD designed for the 1965 Shelby GT-350. You can read about an hour's worth of tech articles, patent info, and magazine stories about the IRS on my web site www.mustangirs.com
The best intro to the subject is by reading the 2 articles that appeared in RACE CAR ENGINEERING. They are listed under the MEDIA section. Just for fun, check out ALL THE KING'S MEN video in the same section. I used to own THE LAST OF THE KING COBRAS which set in my garage attic for decades. It's now being restored by the original Shelby team. Fun !!
Please feel free to write me on this forum, or at ctm913@hotmail.com.
Thanks
and thank you Daze
