Competition Car Composites: A Practical Handbook

The use of 'composites' is now an essential element in the construction of competition cars, so it is important that those involved in the sport have a thorough understanding of what they are, and how they can be employed. This practical guide covers all aspects of composite fiber reinforced plastic manufacturing techniques: wet and dry laminating techniques; pattern making and constructing moulds; material upgrades; vacuum consolidation and elevated temperature cure; pre-peg fabrics in the home workshop, and more. A valuable source of reference.
