An ADAMS model of South Africa’s first ever Le Mans car was developed and used to tune the suspension parameters. Validation of the model is to be done by comparing simulation results to those obtained in track testing. The suspension parameters of note were the spring and damping rates for the third damper and the anti-roll bar (ARB) rate in the 3 damper suspension arrangement.
