Nurburgring fans? This one is for you.
This is a nice one! My Dad and I looked through this a lot before going to the 'Ring last September and there was quite a bit of useful stuff in there. However, for any first-timers in rental cars (as we were), the most useful bit of advice was to take it easy and keep an eye out for quicker people in your mirrors... 
Nice document.
And I love this awesome pic at the beginning. I wanna see chassis flex like this in LFS!

Nice guide, I didn't read all of it, but it seems to be pretty thorough.
@farcar, I don't think that is chassis flex... probably just got some air in a corner and really bounced high on the inside And well, we'd have that sort of action in LFS if our tracks were more fun and bouncy

Oh, I read this back when I was doing the upper echelons of GT4 licenses/missions.. ugh... bad memories. Great guide though.
Well, that seems not to flex at all...
Seriously: I love such pics too just awesome when they do that...
I don't care about chassis flex, but I'd kill for an 02 in LFS, then I'd be able to drive the nuts off my RL car without worrying about the hefty bill.
Yes, it's definitely chassis flex.
Look closely at the left rear; its touching the road.

Guides like these are dangerous. There are too many people being killed in an attempt to follow these guides. Nice to read though.
Like the person in your avatar?
There is chassis flex but that isn't the reason why the front tire is in the air, not touching the ground. It is because of suspension and as Tweaker said: "probably just got some air in a corner and really bounced high on the inside".
You can't notice chassis flex by eye because the changes are quite small. Chassis flex does not raise your tire off the ground. Chassis flex raises one corner of the car upwards and this means that suspension have to deal with this. Chassis flex affects slightly to the weight distribution between the tires. The deformation that occurs is more like the camber/caster/toe chaging than the tire lifting up
farcar thinks that "chassis flex" is the motion of the car's body/chassis relative to the wheels.
