The name of the game in racing is traction,
and keeping your tires firmly planted under all track conditions and
surface abnormalities have become a science. Monitoring suspension
deflection through shock absorber movement is the common method of
tracking suspension and tire performance. Racepak users can employ these
shock absorber travel sensors to monitor even the slightest amount of
shock travel or tire shake. Shock travel graphs will provide you with the
data you’ll need to tune ’to the track’ more precisely.
Front and rear shock travel sensors are available
individually or as a kit. The kits, which are available for V Series or
Pro Series recorders, each contain the linear shock travel sensor, cable,
and signal conditioning module for one shock. An available analog channel
is required for each wheel monitored. Sportsman Shock Travel info

Motor Sports Innovations assembles Racepak
generic 0-5 volt Vnet modules with high quality motion sensors to give the
sportsman racer the ability to measure drag race vehicle movement. In a
typical installation the travel sensors supply information to the V300
Analog port sampling at 1000 samples per second allowing Pro teams to
understand shock velocity as well as car movement. The Sportsman does not
have an Analog port so measure shock velocity but with these kits, will
measure movement of your suspension with excellent accuracy. Includes
setup instructions. Developed in cooperation with Racepak- CSI.
