Riley Rocker

Anybody (hint: Mike... ) have good info/pics of Riley's suspension? I have been interested to learn more about it for some time, but have been unable to find out anything substantial via the web.

Thanks! Stan

Do you mean the Mk. XI? It won't have a Riley Rocker, that's for sure. GARRA rules only allow one spring per wheel.

Thanks, George, but I was thinking more of the suspension system installed on the Mk III and the Cadillac LMP, called the "Riley Rocker".

Dauntless, this link will bring up a page then just scroll down until you get to the Cadillac and it's got some quite interesting pictures on there, I hope it helps.

Which I thought used a third spring in the front suspension. Apologies if I have that wrong.

Yes, very nice...thanks!

Now, if I could just see the actuation geometry I'd be all set.

Have you tried contacting the team as a last means of getting information? I don't know about anyone else but getting some actuation geometry for the car has really got my stumped! If you want to get in contact with someone from them try this,
