which staniforth book?
ive got to pick a book to put on my christmas list, but scouring amazon there seem to be several versions of staniforths book 'competition car
suspension'. Theres the 2006 'practical handbook', 1999 'design, construction and tuning', and the 1988 original. Any
ideas which i should get? Cheers!

I have the 1999 'design, construction and tuning which is good however I think Fred Puhn's "How to make you car handle" is
much better. (ISBN 0-912656-46-8). I guess it depends on whether you are wanting to learn more about suspension and making your car handle better or
building a chassis and suspension system from scratch.
