    I work for the publisher and have read the manuscript. It is a book, and it will be out before October. The release date is actually August. You can see it at our website at:

    http://www.cartechbooks.com/vstore/showdetl.cfm?DID=6&User_ID=175309&st=196&st2=-72254&st3=82351&Product_ID=2416&CATID=19

    Of course, the Amazon price will be much cheaper.

    I have to warn you, there is some good info in this book but it is written more for people just getting started in this stuff. The more knowledgable members here will not learn as much from this book. It is physically impossible to go into full detail into all the mods possible in a book of this size and price. Probably the best info is the chassis and suspension geometry info and driveline geometry info.

    Many of you guys are what we call the 1%-ers, meaning you are the top 1% of the hobby in terms of knowledge. If you publish to please the 1% of the hobby, you can go broke in a hurry. Just an FYI.
