Being that I am new to this Auto X thing I was on a quest to soak my brain with more information to better understand what certain parts did and why you would want to use them. In that search I found some great information over on www.honda-tech.com. So here is some links from that post. Some may be Honda specific but lots of the links are great for any car. Some of it has to do with road racing but it still gave me a better understanding so I hope this helps the new folks like myself. :D
