Course for setting up Formula Cars

Hi, i am tempted to know where can i take some course to learn more about how to set up formula cars ? I just want to enhance myself in this area, found myself lack of knowledge on how about formulas setting. Being a racer, it's important. My frineds said Silverstone racing shool provide such courses. Apart from this school, where can i learn about this knowledge? Thank you.

Monopostos did a day on this a couple of years ago - it was rather good and very good value for money.

Not a school - they're a race series for a diverse range of single seaters - website is www.monoposto.co.uk

For Books that deal with the subject, and many other aspects for race car engineering, construction and driving give Carroll smith a go. There are a number of books, the following are two examples.

Engineer to Win
By Carroll Smith
November 1984
ISBN 0879381868

Tune to Win
By Carroll Smith
January 1979
ISBN 0879380713

Good Luck
Andy

No, they take your cash and teach you to drive (probably) but you will not learn how to set up a car. The books mentioned are very good so buy them but there is really only one way to learn.... by doing it yourself.
