Automotive Design and Production has a very interesting article about how advanced design and dynamic simulation have progressed using software and techniques originally designed by the Navy for analyzing missiles. This has been used to design the Corvettes that are racing in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS) that will be racing on Belle Isle in a couple of weeks. Here is the link to the article written by Christopher Sawyer... http://www.autofieldguide.com/ articles/050702.html

As I have said many times, I think that advanced computers and software are the keys to designing more efficient and better automobiles in the future. This is a good example of this technology at work.
