In this chapter all you have learned in the previous chapters comes together to calculate the Magic Numbers. Based on the data from an imaginary example car, the following main numbers are being calculated in 10 steps: Percentage front static weight Percentage front roll resistance, Percentage front load transfer Percentage front aerodynamic load. With these data in mind, an engineer is able to make the right and quick decisions, and to choose useful setting to start lap time simulations.
