Racing Shocks; How to Read Shock Dyno Graphs, Transmissibility, Hysteresis, Shock Pistons

[@2weldit]

Awesome stuff! Ever do desert racing with bypass shocks?

[@HoganTechnologiesLLC]

Never done any desert racing, but bypass shocks are the future in our sport if anyone wants to figure them out and the sanctioning bodies want to keep them legal. Sanctioning bodies in our sport want to limit it too much. It's sad. I think it's all an effort to keep stupid people competitive.

I recently dealt with Accu-Force. Great guys there. Knowledgeable and they care about their work. They were kind enough to test some no name shocks I bought for a production based car, not a late model dirt track race car.

Yea, those are some great guys over there. If I were a racer and didn't build my own shocks, that is where I'd send my stuff.

I love the listening to the information you impart here, it's very very helpful.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for watching.

[@kjbigslim]

great video. Have you ever sped your videos up to 1.25 playback speed? 😉

[@HoganTechnologiesLLC]

Nope, never tried anything like that.

[@Shadow1986]

Haha i played it at 1.25 Great video. Suscribed

I want to start building my own shocks for my race program. Why do you recommend the Pen Dyno over the computerized Dyno systems?

[@KevinKatzenberg]

For me, I’ve always felt it was always easier to read and find small anomalies in the pen dyno graphs. They were much cheaper, seemed to take a little more abuse if people put them in their trailers, and I just love having the control, by hand, over the velocity. I much prefer the force displacement graphs anyways. I never did like the force vs. velocity stuff that seems to be so prominent. Thanks for watching.
