Yep, he was calling the steering axis' intersection with the ground the "Dave Point". I'm pretty sure it's called the scrub center.
It's still an important piece of mathematica, but I instantly distrust anyone who names a theoretical construct after themselves instead of a usefully descriptive term. That's the kind of self-promotion we expect from people with gold chains and grilles, not suspension engineers.
Now, a question that I've never had awequately answered: When calculating roll center, what is more important, that point, or the wheel centerline? If it's indeed the latter, then changing wheel offset could have significant effect on roll center motion through wheel travel.
Is that level of rear end squat due to copious amounts of downforce, or is something broken ?!?

That's in Sydney, probably pretty close to me. Looks like the m5 motorway. I recognise the cop car in the background with the blank drivers door and the cop who drives it standing near the tow truck.

Always wanted to build one of these as a Challenger.
