suspension(handling) guide

Hi, does any one have a link to the suspension or handling guide indicating how changing various suspension componants affects oversteer/understeer. This was once listed in the Performance Products catalogue in their suspension section. Thanks Jerry

Basically, and an over simplified, ( I apologize).
Stiffen the front to increase understeer
Soften the rear to increase understeer
Stiffen the rear to increase oversteer
Soften the front to increase oversteer.
This applies to torsion bars, shocks, and sway bars.

Like I said that is pretty generic but hopefully it helps a little.

There is a pretty good guide on the west Texas SCCA site here.
