Creuat suspension
With Peugeot rumored and confirmed to use hydraulicly coupled anti-roll bars, shouldn't people contact Creuat to adopt their system?
RfH tried it on their Dome during the Le Mans test day, but selected conventional springs for the race. Racecar engineering had an article about it. Perhaps Audi should give them a ring? |

In an other RCE article ( I think about the Dome S101.5) it was mentioned that the Creuat suspension couldn't deal with the higher downforce rates the S101Hb created.
And i think Audi and also Peugeot create more downforce than the S101Hb, so the Creuat system is not really a choice. |

Thanks.
Just for the record. Some more background on the system on http://archive.dailysportscar.com/su...suspension.htm |

As in the other thread, Mike confirmed that Peugeot are running traditional torsion bar springs and shock absorbers and possibly using the hydraulic function for roll and pitch control, so we must clarify that this is different to running a complete hydraulic suspension system that also controls the basic wheel bump (which I understand is what RfH did).
