Basant mohamed abdel- menam smeda: introduction the fundamental behavior of a vehicle being driven. It is often described in terms of the response a car has to driver input. For example, the car pushes (or has understeer) in a corner or the car is loose (or has oversteer) in a corner. We can describe the vehicle response from a combination of factors including how the weight is distributed in the car, how the suspension reacts to the driving forces, and how the tires contact the road surface. So, we can visualize the behavior of the car we are designing or working on to optimize its performance. 2: the elements that facilitate the handling of the racing car, weight distribution. The positions of the components in a vehicle determine how its weight is distributed while it is standing still. This static weight distribution will also affect the way it handles the track.
